20110090217METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGES - A three-dimensional sense adjusting unit displays three-dimensional images to a user. If a displayed reaches a limit of parallax, the user responds to the three-dimensional sense adjusting unit. According to acquired appropriate parallax information, a parallax control unit generates parallax images to realize the appropriate parallax in the subsequent stereo display. The control of parallaxes is realized by optimally setting camera parameters by going back to three-dimensional data.

20080225373IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS AND OPTICAL MEMBER THEREFOR - An image display apparatus capable of switching a display mode between a directional display mode of displaying a first image in a first viewing direction and a second image in a second viewing direction and a non-directional display mode of displaying the same image in both the first and second viewing directions includes an image forming unit and an optical member. The image forming unit forms an image and emits image light representing the image. The optical member is disposed adjacent to an emitting side of the image forming unit and is used for switching the display mode.
