A stereoscopic image display apparatus which can accurately visually recognize all the regions of a stereoscopic image without using a varifocal lens, and can form a natural three-dimensional image on a retina with a processing load on a computer eased even if an image is viewed by a plurality of viewers from any positions. A stereoscopic image display apparatus for generating a stereoscopic image that forms three-dimensional image on a retina of a viewer and displaying it, wherein a critical parallax that is the boundary of parallax capable of forming a three-dimensional image on a retina of a viewer is calculated, the dimensions of rectangular parallelepiped inscribing a sphere having a diameter as the calculated critical parallax are calculated, a space including an object is divided into a plurality of spaces using the calculated rectangular parallelepiped, a stereoscopic image of the object with respect to a single gazing point is generated for each divided space, and the plurality of generated stereoscopic images are pasted together to generate a single stereoscopic image and display the generated single stereoscopic image.

A three-dimensional model modification system for modifying a three-dimensional model, defined by a plurality of surfaces and representing an arbitrary object is disclosed. The system includes a base-curve generating unit fitting skeleton lines, representing a prerecorded approximate outline of the object, to a three-dimensional model to be modified and generating base curves, representing an approximate outline of the three-dimensional model; a first polygon forming unit generating a group of points from the three-dimensional model; a base-curve modifying unit arbitrarily modifying the base curves of the three-dimensional model, according to an instruction from an operator; a group-of-points displacing/determining unit displacing the group of points based on base curve displacements from the base curves before arbitral modification to the base curves after arbitrary modification; and a second polygon forming unit generating a three-dimensional model defined by a plurality of surfaces formed from the group of points.
