© 2018 IEEE.A key role in the advancement of 3 Dimensional TV services is played by the development of 3D video quality metrics used for the assessment of the perceived quality. Moreover, this key role can only be supported when the features associated with the 3D video nature is reliably and efficiently characterized in these metrics. In this study, z-direction motion incorporated with significant depth levels in depth map sequences are considered as the main characterizations of the 3D nature. The 3D video quality metrics can be classified into three categories based on the need for the reference video during the assessment process at the user end: Full Reference (FR), Reduced Reference (RR) and No Reference (NR). In this study we propose a NR quality metric, PNRM, suitable for on-the-fly 3D video services. In order to evaluate the reliability and effectiveness of the proposed metric, subjective experiments are conducted in this paper. Observing the high correlation with the subjective experimental results, it can be clearly stated that the proposed metric is able to mimic the Human Visual System (HVS).
