A three-dimensional sense adjusting unit displays three-dimensional images to a user. If a displayed reaches a limit of parallax, the user responds to the three-dimensional sense adjusting unit. According to acquired appropriate parallax information, a parallax control unit generates parallax images to realize the appropriate parallax in the subsequent stereo display. The control of parallaxes is realized by optimally setting camera parameters by going back to three-dimensional data. Functions to realize the appropriate parallax are made into and presented by a library.

Method and apparatus for processing three-dimensional images

A deviation amount of a pictographic character portion of 'G' is calculated based on a description of a file, and left eye-use display data (ABCDEF GIJK) and right eye-use display data (ABCDEG HIJKL) in a portion (b) in FIG.are generated. A starting location of a description of 'ABCDEFGHIJKL' is specified by an X coordinate and a Y coordinate described in the file. In addition, a process of alternately writing pixel data constituting the left eye-use display data (ABCDEF GIJK) and pixel data constituting the right eye-use display data (ABCDEG HIJKL) from a pixel data storing location of a VRAM corresponding to the coordinates (that is, one right eye-use pixel and one left eye-use pixel are alternately written one after another in a horizontal direction as a display image) is carried out.

Stereoscopic image display apparatus, text data processing apparatus, program, and storing medium

When '0' indicating that intensity of a stereoscopic effect is the lowest is applied as a stereoscopic effect tag, a stereoscopic image is allowed to be displayed as it is. On the other hand, when '1, 2, and 3' are applied as the stereoscopic effect tag, a reduction ratio is determined depending on a value of the stereoscopic effect tag (one-half, one-third, etc.). On the basis of this reduction ratio, the stereoscopic image is displayed and letters of &#x201c;warning&#x201d; are displayed. A user selects whether to display the stereoscopic image according to a producer's intention or to maintain the size-reduced stereoscopic image. If an operation requiring for a display of the stereoscopic image as it is intended by the producer is performed, an original stereoscopic image is displayed.

Stereoscopic image generating device and stereoscopic image delivery method

The present invention enables liquid crystal display devices, note-book personal computers, or the like to display stereoscopic images by installing an image splitting means and comprises a display panel displaying images taken from a plurality of viewpoints, image splitting means installed to the display panel removably and including an image splitting panel which splits image light from the display panel into stereo pairs of images. The image splitting means comprises an installing means for installing the image splitting means to the display panel removably and an adjusting means for positioning spatially the image splitting means and the display panel.

Stereoscopic image display device using image splitter, adjustment method thereof, and stereoscopic image display system

An image display capable of providing stereoscopic images to an observer in both of a vertically arranged state and a horizontally arranged state is obtained. This image display comprises display portion for displaying an image, a light source for applying light to the display portion, first polarization axis control part or portion for separating the light emitted from the light source into light having a first polarization axis and light having a second polarization axis in a state where at least a prescribed reference side of the display portion is arranged in a first direction and second polarization axis control portion for separating the light emitted from the light source to light having at least two different polarization axes in a state where the prescribed reference side of the display portion is arranged in a second direction intersecting with the first direction.

Stereoscopic image display with vertical and horizontal arrangements

An image display provides a stereoscopic image to an observer by advancing either light having a first polarization axis or light having a second polarization axis toward the eyes of the observer while arranging a prescribed reference side of a display panel in a first direction, and provides another stereoscopic image to the observer by advancing either light having a third polarization axis or light having a fourth polarization axis toward the eyes of the observer while arranging the prescribed reference side of the display panel in a second direction intersecting with the first direction.
