Abstract

The present invention provides a stereoscopic image display device that improves visibility of a stereoscopic pointer image when the pointer position moves between objects in the stereoscopic image that have greatly different display depths. The display device changes the display depth of the stereoscopic pointer image in accordance with the display depth of an object in the stereoscopic image. When the pointer position moves between objects that have greatly different display depths from time tto time t, the stereoscopic pointer image at time tis rendered so as to be perceived as having a display depth intermediate between the display depth of the stereoscopic pointer image at time tand the display depth of the display screen at the pointer position at t. As a result, visibility of the stereoscopic pointer image is improved.
