THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGE GENERATOR, THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE, THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGE GENERATION METHOD, AND PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To give a 3D appearance when generating three-dimensional images based on two-dimensional images.

SOLUTION: A depth setting portion 220 sets a depth D(xp, yp) according to depth information d(xp, yp) and a depth enhancement level α or a depth offset β, and a viewing distance setting portion 230 sets a viewing distance L between a screen and both eyes. An object area recognition portion 270 recognizes an object area based on a two-dimensional image P(xp, yp) or the depth information d(xp, yp) to calculate the center coordinates C. A left-eye coordinate calculator 241 and a right-eye coordinate calculator 242 calculate the coordinates of left- and right-eye images so that a stereoscopic image magnified around the center coordinates C of the object is formed at the depth D(xp, yp) according to a magnification ratio S specified by a magnification ratio specifying portion 261. Based on the calculated coordinates, a left-eye image generator 251 and a right-eye image generator 252 generate a left-eye image and a right-eye image.
