A gradation correction map generating unit generates a gradation correction map based on a brightness unevenness map, a rotation unevenness map, and a second gamma characteristic. The brightness unevenness map indicates a correspondence relation between a plurality of positions in a screen of a display unit, and uncorrected brightness values, the uncorrected brightness values being brightness values at time of performing no correction when the display unit is installed at a predetermined angle. The rotation unevenness map indicates a correspondence relation between the plurality of positions or other plurality of positions, and differences in brightness values corresponding to a rotation angle of the display unit. The second gamma characteristic indicates a correspondence relation between a brightness value at a specific position in the screen, and a gradation of an image signal.
