Abstract
This specification discloses a three-dimensional image pickup and display apparatus having a radiation source for applying a radioactive ray to an object, a photographing unit for photographing the transmission image of the object, and a control unit for setting three-dimensional display parameters for observing a three-dimensional image which conforms to a three-dimensional display output device. The control unit changes the position of the radiation source in conformity with the three-dimensional display parameters.
Claims10
A photographing apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of radiation sources for applying a transmissive radiation ray to an object;
- a photographing unit for photographing a transmission image of the object;
- and
- a control unit for setting three-dimensional display parameters for observing a stereoscopically viewable image which conforms to a three-dimensional display output device;
- wherein the control unit selects the radiation source for irradiating said object in conformity with the three-dimensional display parameters and changes the position of the radiation source in conformity with the three-dimensional display parameters.
A three-dimensional image generating apparatus comprising:
- a photographing unit for photographing a transmission image of an object to which a transmissive radiation ray is applied by a radiation source;
- a control unit for setting three-dimensional display parameters for observing a stereoscopically viewable image which conforms to a three-dimensional display output device;
- and
- an image processing unit for generating an image different from the transmission image photographed by the photographing unit, on the basis of the three-dimensional display parameters,
- wherein the radiation source is one of a plurality of radiation sources, and
- wherein the control unit selects the radiation source for irradiating said object in conformity with said three-dimensional display parameters.
A three-dimensional image generating apparatus comprising:
- a photographing unit for photographing a transmission image of an object to which a transmissive radiation ray is applied by a radiation source;
- a control unit for setting three-dimensional display parameters for observing a stereoscopically viewable image which conforms to a three-dimensional display output device;
- and
- an image processing unit for generating an image different from the transmission image photographed by the photographing unit, on the basis of the three-dimensional display parameters,
- wherein the image processing unit mirroring processes said transmission image to thereby generate an image, and
- wherein the control unit changes the position of the radiation source in conformity with the three-dimensional display parameters.
