<p>In order to create left-eye and right-eye images in stereoscopic observation of a subject, an image processing technology, taking as a reference an optical axis direction when capturing a reference image, sets a left-side viewpoint (PL) to a first location (P1) which is removed to the left side by a first distance (D1), and a right-side viewpoint (PR) to a second location (P2) which is removed to the right side by a second distance (D2). With the value of the proportion of the lesser of the first distance (D1) and the second distance (D2) to the greater thereof designated the left-right ratio, the first distance (D1) and the second distance (D2) are set such that the value of the left-right ratio is a ratio which is nonzero and less than 1 across the stereoscopic image overall. It is thus possible to achieve a viable balance between reduced discomfort and accuracy when employing two-dimensional images in the viewing of stereoscopic images.</p> |
