Abstract
A method of converting two-dimensional images into three-dimensional images by producing from a two-dimensional image signal a first image signal which forms a basis and a second image signal delayed by a predetermined number of fields from the first image signal and taking one of the signals as a left eye image signal and the other as a right eye image signal. It is judged whether or not a scene represented by the two-dimensional image signal is changed. When it is judged that the scene is changed, delay indicating how many fields are there from a field corresponding to the first image signal to a field corresponding to the second image signal is set to a predetermined value, for example, zero.
