20080198219 | 3D Image file, photographing apparatus, image reproducing apparatus, and image processing apparatus - A photographing apparatus has two binocular stereoscopic modes. In two-take photography mode, a 3D image file is generated from left and right monocular images acquired by performing monocular photographing twice, and the 3D image file thus generated is recorded. In one-take photography mode, a 3D image file is generated from left and right monocular images acquired by performing binocular photographing once, and the 3D image file thus generated is recorded. When the 3D image file is recorded, a homogeneity tag is recorded in 3D metadata, as tag information of the header data portion of the 3D image file. The homogeneity tag is information about the homogeneity of the two monocular images and describes whether the two monocular images have been acquired in the one-take photography mode in which monocular images highly homogeneous are provided, or in the two-take photography mode in which monocular images not so homogeneous are provided. | 08-21-2008 |
20080309755 | Image outputting apparatus and program - An operation unit switches the operating mode between a 3D display output mode in which the images of the 3D image file are displayed as a stereoscopic images and a 2D display output mode in which one of the images of the 3D image file is displayed as an ordinary planar image. The 3D image file is composed of stereoscopic image data which represents a plurality of monocular images constituting a multi-ocular stereoscopic image and information which is added to the stereoscopic image data and which indicates that the data is stereoscopic data. In the 2D display output mode, a control unit makes an output unit display an image of the 3D image file read from a medium by a media reader and also display a mark on the same screen, indicating that the image displayed in the 2D display output mode is based on the 3D image file. | 12-18-2008 |

20100188489 | Stereoscopic Image Display System and Projection-Type Image Display Apparatus - An image display unit, such as a projection-type image display apparatus, displays a first image and a second image, having a predetermined parallax relative to the first image, onto a predetermined display region by dividing the first image and the second image temporally or spatially. First eyeglasses are to be worn by a first viewer to see the first image and the second image displayed on the display region. Second eyeglasses are to be worn by a second viewer to see the first image and the second image displayed on the display region, and the second viewer faces the first viewer in a direction parallel to the plane of display. The first eyeglasses perform a function of having the right eye of the first viewer see the first image and having the left eye of the first viewer see the second image. The second eyeglasses perform a function of having the right eye of the second viewer see the second image and having the left eye of the second viewer see the first image. | 07-29-2010 |
20110051092 | OPTICAL ELEMENT, OPTICAL UNIT, AND PROJECTION DISPLAY APPARATUS FOR SWITCHING POLARIZATION DIRECTION - Each of a first polarization separation element and a second polarization separation element reflects one of two polarization components perpendicular to each other included in incident light and transmits the other polarization component. A switching element is placed between the first polarization separation element and second polarization separation element and switches between a first state of transmitting an incident polarization component as it is and a second state of converting an incident polarization component to the other polarization component perpendicular to the incident polarization component and transmitting the converted component. | 03-03-2011 |
20110069242 | PROJECTION DESPLAY APPARATUS - A projection display apparatus ( | 03-24-2011 |
20110069286 | PROJECTION DISPLAY APPARATUS - A projection display apparatus includes a housing case housing a plurality of light sources, a reflective light valve, and a projection unit. The housing case has a base plate and a ceiling plate. The ceiling plate is provided with a transmission area and a projection-plane-side shield plate, the transmission area being an area through which light emitted from the projection unit passes, the projection-plane-side shield plate being placed closer to the projection plane than the transmission area. The projection-plane-side shield plate is configured to shield unwanted light being other than light forming an image among light passed through the transmission area. | 03-24-2011 |
20110157555 | STEREOSCOPIC-IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE - An image signal storing unit stores an image signal provided from the outside. An image processing unit appropriately processes the image signal stored in the image signal storing unit in accordance with the instruction from an adjusting unit. A projecting unit projects, onto a display area, light corresponding to an image created by the image processing unit. A display size determination unit computes the display size of the picture plane displayed on a screen based on an image captured by the camera provided adjacent to the projection-type video-image display device. The display size determination unit then determines whether or not the display size of the picture plane is equal to or larger than a predetermined upper-limit size. | 06-30-2011 |
20120001903 | DISPLAY APPARATUS - An display apparatus displays a three-dimensional image formed of a plurality of viewpoint images, and includes an image controller that controls a second viewpoint image to suppress a crosstalk of a first viewpoint image the first viewpoint image and the second viewpoint image are included in the plurality of viewpoint images. The image controller switches a control mode for suppressing the crosstalk, between a subtraction mode and an addition mode in accordance with an image input signal forming the three-dimensional image. | 01-05-2012 |
