Image processing apparatus for displaying three-dimensional image

摘要

A stereoscopic image processing apparatus which can automatically assign stereoscopic viewing parameters to VRML data in which no stereoscopic viewing parameters are defined. VRML data is input, and the user sets or changes stereoscopic viewing parameters (initial values of the base line length and convergence angle) required for stereoscopic viewing on the basis of the input VRML data.The initial value of the base line length is set based on the maximum size of the range of the space of the VRML data, and the initial value of the convergence angle is set at "0". These initial values are arbitrarily changed at a user interface.
