Stereoscopic image processing apparatus and stereoscopic image processing method

Abstract

A stereoscopic image processing apparatus includes an input/output interface operable to obtain a stereoscopic image including images at least at two view points, a parallax information detector operable to obtain parallax information about a parallax value for at least one of an upper region including an upper end and a lower region including a lower end of the obtained stereoscopic image, a display method setting unit operable to set a display method of an image on the region for which the parallax information is obtained, based on the parallax information about the region, an signal processor operable to process the image of the stereoscopic image on the region for which the parallax information is obtained, based on the set display method, and an signal processor operable to output a new stereoscopic image obtained based on the processed result.
