Abstract
Disclosed herein is an information processing apparatus, including: an acquisition section adapted to acquire stereoscopic image information for displaying a stereoscopic image; and a production section adapted to compare a first image and a second image, which configure the acquired stereoscopic image information, with each other to produce a parameter indicative of a position of a body included in the stereoscopic image in the depthwise direction when the stereoscopic image is displayed.
Claims18
An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- an acquisition section operable to acquire stereoscopic image information, comprising a first image and a second image, for displaying a stereoscopic image;
- and
- a production section operable to:
- select a first object block on the first image and a second object block, on the second image, corresponding to a position of the first object block on the first image;
- determine a correlation between the first object block and each of a plurality of object blocks on the second image, wherein the plurality of object blocks includes the second object block and one or more object blocks within a predetermined range from the second object block along the horizontal direction of the second image, wherein the predetermined range is determined based on length of a display face of a display device associated with the information processing apparatus;
- and
- determine a parameter, indicative of a position of a body included in the first object block in the depthwise direction when the stereoscopic image is displayed, based on the determined correlation.
An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- an acquisition section operable to acquire video data including a first image and a second image for displaying a stereoscopic image, the video data being of a frame packing system which is a transmission system, wherein the first image and the second image in a coded form are transmitted successively on a time axis in a unit of a pair;
- and
- a production section operable to:
- select a first object block on the first image and a second object block, on the second image, corresponding to a position of the first object block on the first image;
- determine a correlation between the first object block and each of a plurality of object blocks on the second image, wherein the plurality of object blocks includes the second object block and one or more object blocks within a predetermined range from the second object block along the horizontal direction of the second image, wherein the predetermined range is determined based on length of a display face of a display device associated with the information processing apparatus;
- and
- determine a parameter, indicative of a position of a body included in the first object block in the depthwise direction, based on the determined correlation.
An information processing method, comprising:
- acquiring stereoscopic image information, comprising a first image and a second image, for displaying a stereoscopic image;
- selecting a first object block on the first image and a second object block, on the second image, corresponding to a position of the first object block on the first image;
- determining a correlation between the first object block and each of a plurality of object blocks on the second image, wherein the plurality of object blocks includes the second object block and one or more object blocks within a predetermined range from the second object block along the horizontal direction of the second image, wherein the predetermined range is determined based on length of a display face of a display device which displays the stereoscopic image;
- and
- determining a parameter, indicative of a position of each of one or more bodies included in the first object block in the depthwise direction when the stereoscopic image is displayed, based on the determined correlation.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored thereon, a computer program having at least one code section executable by a computer, thereby causing the computer to perform the steps comprising:
- acquiring stereoscopic image information, comprising a first image and a second image, for displaying a stereoscopic image;
- selecting a first object block on the first image and a second object block, on the second image, corresponding to a position of the first object block on the first image;
- determining a correlation between the first object block and each of a plurality of object blocks on the second image, wherein the plurality of object blocks includes the second object block and one or more object blocks within a predetermined range from the second object block along the horizontal direction of the second image, wherein the predetermined range is determined based on length of a display face of a display device which displays the stereoscopic image;
- and
- determining a parameter, indicative of a position of each of one or more bodies included in the first object block in the depthwise direction when the stereoscopic image is displayed, based on the determined correlation.
