Stereo image display device and method
View Patent ↗A stereo image display device includes an image display unit for displaying a parallactic image having a right-eye image and a left-eye image on a display plane, a parallactic image selecting unit for making only the right-eye image of the parallactic image reach the right eye of a viewer and making only the left-eye image of the parallactic image reach the left eye of the viewer to thereby make the viewer view a stereo image, an eye fatigue degree detecting unit for detecting the eye fatigue degree of the viewer, and an eye fatigue relaxation processing unit for carrying out eye fatigue relaxation processing for relaxing the eye fatigue of the viewer.
1. A stereo image display method comprising:
displaying a parallactic image having a right-eye image and a left-eye image on a display plane;
making only the right-eye image of the parallactic image to the right eye of a viewer while making only the left-eye image of the parallactic image to the left eye of the viewer, thereby making the viewer view a stereo image; and
initiating an eye fatigue relaxation processing for relaxing the eye fatigue of the viewer while viewing the stereo image when a predetermined time elapses, the predetermined time being greater than zero;
wherein the eye fatigue relaxation processing step includes displacing the stereo image viewed by the viewer in a perpendicular direction to the display plane.
2. A stereo image display method comprising:
displaying a parallactic image having a right-eye image and a left-eye image on a display plane;
making only the right-eye image of the parallactic image to the right eye of a viewer while making only the left-eye image of the parallactic image to the left eye of the viewer, thereby making the viewer view a stereo image; and
initiating relaxing the eye fatigue of the viewer while viewing the stereo image when a predetermined time elapses, the predetermined time being greater than zero;
wherein the eye fatigue relaxation processing step includes displacing the display plane in the depth direction with respect to the viewer.
3. The stereo image display method according to claim 2 , wherein carrying out the processing of displacing the display plane without varying the size of the stereo image viewed by the viewer.
4. A stereo image display device comprising:
an image display unit configured to display a parallactic image having a right-eye image and a left-eye image on a display plane;
a parallactic image selecting unit configured to make only the right-eye image of the parallactic image reach the right eye of a viewer and to make only the left-eye image of the parallactic image reach the left eye of the viewer to thereby make the viewer view a stereo image; and
an eye fatigue relaxation processing unit configured to initiate eye fatigue relaxation processing for relaxing the eye fatigue of the viewer while viewing the stereo image when a predetermined time elapses, the predetermined time being greater than zero;
wherein the eye fatigue relaxation processing unit carries out as the eye fatigue relaxation processing the processing of displacing the stereo image viewed by the viewer in a perpendicular direction to the display plane.
5. A stereo image display device comprising:
an image display unit configured to display a parallactic image having a right-eye image and a left-eye image on a display plane;
a parallactic image selecting unit configured to make only the right-eye image of the parallactic image reach the right eye of a viewer and to make only the left-eye image of the parallactic image reach the left eye of the viewer to thereby make the viewer view a stereo image; and
an eye fatigue relaxation processing unit configured to initiate eye fatigue relaxation processing for relaxing the eye fatigue of the viewer while viewing the stereo image when a predetermined time elapses, the predetermined time being greater than zero;
wherein the eye fatigue relaxation processing unit is equipped with a display plane displacing unit configured to displace the display plane in the depth direction with respect to the viewer, and the eye fatigue relaxation processing contains the processing of displacing the display plane.
6. The stereo image display device according to claim 5 , wherein the eye fatigue relaxation processing unit carries out the processing that the display plane is displaced without varying the size of the stereo image viewed by the viewer.
