Abstract
To achieve a balance between responsiveness of image display with respect to movement of a viewing point, and image quality. Reference viewing points are set in respect of a space containing an object to be displayed, and images of the space as viewed from these respective reference viewing points are created as reference images. Meanwhile, when pixel values of display images from a virtual camera are determined, reference images are selected wherein a point on the object represented by the pixel in question is represented as an image, and the values of these pixels are combined using a rule based on the positional relationship etc. of the reference viewing points with the virtual camera.
