Abstract
A three-dimensional image communication terminal can make communication in which there are a sense of being engaged on a place and a sense of reality by use of a three-dimensional image with naturalness and a high robust characteristic. A three-dimensional image communication terminal includes a three-dimensional image input section, a transmitting section that transmits an input image to a communication partner after image processing, a three-dimension image display section which monitor-displays a human image or an object image which was shot, and a telephone calling section which receives three-dimensional image information from a partner and communicates with the other end by voice. The three-dimensional image display section includes an integral photography type horizontal/vertical parallax display device. In the three-dimensional image input section, camerasare disposed in the vicinity of the three-dimensional image display section, in order to capture a telephone calling person or an object at an arbitrary position. The cameras can be configured so as to be detachable, and a human image or an object image, which was captured, is image-processed and becomes an image which can be viewed in three dimensions. Since a communication person can view an image in three dimensions, he can make natural communication.
