2D to 3D conversion into account that more distant objects, besides being hazy, should be more desaturated and more bluish because of a thick air layer. The idea of the method is based on the fact that parallel lines, such as railroad tracks and roadsides, appear to converge with distance, eventually reaching a vanishing point at the horizon. Finding this vanishing point gives the farthest point of the whole image. The more the lines converge, the farther away they appear to be. So, for depth map, the area between two neighboring vanishing lines can be approximated with a gradient plane. 2D to 3D conversion
