[Object] To provide suitable disparity using a disparity information set adapted to the type of superposition information. [Solution] A disparity information set creating unit 131 creates predetermined sets of disparity information sets. Examples of the disparity information sets include general-purpose disparity information sets, and disparity information sets for particular service application. Each set of the disparity information sets that is created at the disparity information set creating unit 131 and transmitted along with stereoscopic image data is added with identification information indicating the type of superposition information regarding which disparity information included in this disparity information set should be used. The predetermined sets of disparity information sets are transmitted to the reception side, for example, by being inserted in a user data region of a video data stream. With the reception side, suitable disparity may be provided to the same superposition information (closed caption information, subtitle information, graphics information, text information, etc.) to be superimposed on a left eye image and a right eye image using the disparity information set adapted to the type of this superposition information based on the identification information.
