Stereoscopic image display device, terminal device, stereoscopic image display method, and program thereof

A stereoscopic image display device, comprising:

• a stereoscopic image display panel comprising a display panel in which a plurality of pixels are arranged and a light-ray separating module provided on a display surface side of the display panel for separating parallax images from each of the pixels towards a plurality of N-viewpoints (N is a natural number of 2 or larger) according to layout direction of each of the pixels;
• an observer position measuring unit which measures an observing position of an observer who is facing the display surface;
• a relative position calculating unit which calculates a relative position of the observer with respect to the stereoscopic image display panel based on a result of the measurement;
• and
• an image generation processing unit which has a function for generating viewpoint images for J-viewpoints (J>N) set in advance, and generates one viewpoint image or more according to each of the viewpoints constituting the N-viewpoints by corresponding to the relative position and outputs the viewpoint image towards the stereoscopic image display panel;
• wherein the stereoscopic image display panel is structured in such a manner that a viewpoint pitch between each of the viewpoint regions at an optimum observing distance at which a stereopsis visible range becomes maximum becomes smaller than a distance between both eyes of the observer, when the viewpoint number N is 2, and
• wherein the stereoscopic image display panel is structured to satisfy a relation of “(e+f) >d>e”, where the viewpoint pitch is e, the distance between both eyes is d, and a range of the viewpoint region that is equal to or less than a 3D crosstalk value set in advance is f.
