<p>[Problem] In displaying overlapping information at the time of displaying a stereoscopic image, for example, graphics information such as an OSD, the consistency in the perspective of each object within an image is easily maintained. [Solution] A disparity information set generating unit (122) generates a disparity information set for a predetermined pixel position based on a disparity map. For example, the predetermined pixel position is a pixel position at which the disparity information value is the maximum, in other words, a pixel position that is recognized to be located on the foremost side or the like. The disparity information set includes position data that represents a relative position with respect to the whole image and the disparity data for the position. The disparity information set is spatially synchronized with stereoscopic image data. This disparity information set is independent from the resolution of a stereoscopic image and is also independent from the display resolution of the monitor or the monitor size. The disparity information set generating unit (122) generates a disparity information set for each period acquired by equally dividing a program period or the like of a predetermined program in a hierarchical manner. The disparity information set is synchronized with the stereoscopic image data in time.</p> |
