Title:
STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE DATA TRANSMISSION DEVICE, STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE DATA TRANSMISSION METHOD, AND STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE DATA RECEPTION DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/032997
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] To enable consistency in sense of perspective to be retained easily between each object in an image and overlaid information, for example, an OSD or other graphic information, upon stereoscopic image display. [Solution] A disparity information set creation unit (122) creates a disparity information set for a predetermined pixel position on the basis of a disparity map. The predetermined pixel position is, for example, the pixel position at which the disparity information value is the highest, that is, the pixel position perceived to be closest. The disparity information set includes position data indicating the relative position with respect to the entire image, and the disparity data for that position. The disparity information set is synchronized spatially with stereoscopic image data. This disparity information set is independent of the resolution of the stereoscopic image, and independent of the monitor size and the display resolution of the monitor. At each period obtained by equally dividing the broadcast program period of a predetermined broadcast program hierarchically, the disparity information set creation unit (122) creates a disparity information set. The disparity information set is temporally synchronized with stereoscopic image data.
