Method for displaying a setting menu and corresponding device

1. Method for displaying a settings menu, wherein the settings menu is used for setting the depth of at least one three-dimensional image, the settings menu comprising a three-dimensional graphical element, one of the dimensions of the settings menu extending according to a depth direction, wherein said method comprises steps for:

displaying said settings menu,

inputting of at least one setting representative of at least one item of depth information by selecting at least a part of said graphical element according to the depth direction, said at least one selected part being associated with said at least one setting, said at least a selected part of the graphical element being visually representative of the at least one setting to be applied for the displaying of the at least one three-dimensional image.

2. Method according to claim 1 , wherein it comprises a step of displaying the at least one three-dimensional image for which the depth depends on said at least one setting, the application of the at least one setting to said at least one image being subsequent to the application of the at least one setting at the display of the graphical element.

3. Method according to claim 1 , wherein it comprises a step of displaying the at least one three-dimensional image for which the depth depends on said at least one setting, the application of the at least one setting to said at least one image being simultaneous with the application of the at least one setting at the display of the graphical element.

4. Method according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one setting is representative of a first item of depth information corresponding to a minimum depth of an image to be displayed and of a second item of depth information corresponding to a maximum depth of said image to be displayed.

5. Method according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one setting is representative of an item of depth information corresponding to the average depth of an image to be displayed.

6. Method according to claim 1 , wherein it comprises a step of analysis of a user gesture, the result of the analysis being interpreted to perform said inputting of said at least one setting.

7. Method according to claim 6 , wherein the analysis of said gesture comprises a step of determination of the distance separating two determined parts of the physique of the user, the determined distance being associated with said at least one setting.

8. Method according to claim 1 , wherein the three-dimensional graphical element comprises a plurality of unitary graphical elements displayed according to the depth direction, the plurality of unitary graphical elements being displayed as to correspond to a maximum amplitude of the depth eligible to the at least one three-dimensional image, a depth information being associated with each unitary graphical element, at least one unitary graphical element being selected among said plurality of unitary graphical elements, said at least one selected unitary graphical element being associated with the at least one setting representative of at least one depth information to be applied to the at least one three-dimensional image.

9. An apparatus for displaying a settings menu, wherein the settings menu is used for setting the depth of at least one three-dimensional image, the settings menu comprising a three-dimensional graphical element, one of the dimensions of the settings menu extending according to a depth direction, wherein the apparatus comprises:

a data display circuit for displaying said settings menu,

a control circuit for inputting of at least one setting representative of at least one item of depth information by selecting at least a part of said graphical element according to the depth direction, said at least one selected part being associated with said at least one setting, said at least a selected part of the graphical element being visually representative of the at least one setting to be applied for the displaying of the at least one three-dimensional image.

10. The apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein the data display circuit is configured for displaying the at least one three-dimensional image for which the depth depends on said at least one setting, the application of the at least one setting to said at least one image being subsequent to the application of the at least one setting at the display of the graphical element.

11. The apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein the data display circuit is configured for displaying the at least one three-dimensional image for which the depth depends on said at least one setting, the application of the at least one setting to said at least one image being simultaneous with the application of the at least one setting at the display of the graphical element.

12. The apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein said at least one setting is representative of a first item of depth information corresponding to a minimum depth of an image to be displayed and of a second item of depth information corresponding to a maximum depth of said image to be displayed.

13. The apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein said at least one setting is representative of an item of depth information corresponding to the average depth of an image to be displayed.

14. The apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein it comprises a processor configured for analysing of a user gesture, the result of the analysis being interpreted to perform said inputting of said at least one setting.

15. The apparatus according to claim 14 , wherein the processor is further configured for determining the distance separating two determined parts of the physique of the user, the determined distance being associated with said at least one setting.

16. The apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein the three-dimensional graphical element comprises a plurality of unitary graphical elements displayed according to the depth direction, the plurality of unitary graphical elements being displayed as to correspond to a maximum amplitude of the depth eligible to the at least one three-dimensional image, a depth information being associated with each unitary graphical element, at least one unitary graphical element being selected among said plurality of unitary graphical elements, said at least one selected unitary graphical element being associated with the at least one setting representative of at least one depth information to be applied to the at least one three-dimensional image.
