Abstract
A position and posture acquisition unit of an image generation apparatus acquires position information relating to a point of view of a user. A viewscreen setting unit sets a viewscreen. An original image operation unit calculates a correction amount for a pixel from parallax values of pixels of an original image and an amount of movement of the point of view such that an object looks fixed. Then, an image reference vector map in which an image reference vector that refers to a position before correction from coordinates of each pixel after correction is stored for each pixel is generated. A display image generation unit specifies an image reference vector corresponding to each pixel of the viewscreen and generates, based on the image reference vectors, a color value by filtering pixel values of reference destinations in the original image. An outputting unit outputs a display image.
