Stereoscopic image display device, terminal device, stereoscopic image display method, and program thereof
View Patent ↗The stereoscopic image display device which displays images corresponding to each of a plurality of viewpoints includes: a stereoscopic image display panel which includes a display panel in which a plurality of pixels are arranged and a light-ray separating module provided on the display panel for separating parallax images from each of the pixels towards a plurality of N-viewpoints (N is a natural number of 2 or larger) according to the layout direction of each of the pixels; an observer position measuring unit which measures an observing position of the observer who is facing the display surface; a relative position calculating unit which calculates a relative position of the observer with respect to the stereoscopic image display panel based on the measurement result; and an image generation processing unit which generates viewpoint image by corresponding to the relative position and outputs the image towards the stereoscopic image display panel.
1. A stereoscopic image display device, comprising:
a stereoscopic image display panel comprising a display panel in which a plurality of pixels are arranged and a light-ray separating module provided on a display surface side of the display panel for separating parallax images from each of the pixels towards a plurality of N-viewpoints (N is a natural number of 2 or larger) according to layout direction of each of the pixels;
an observer position measuring unit which measures an observing position of an observer who is facing the display surface;
a relative position calculating unit which calculates a relative position of the observer with respect to the stereoscopic image display panel based on a result of the measurement; and
an image generation processing unit which has a function for generating viewpoint images for J-viewpoints (J>N) set in advance, and generates one viewpoint image or more according to each of the viewpoints constituting the N-viewpoints by corresponding to the relative position and outputs the viewpoint image towards the stereoscopic image display panel;
wherein the stereoscopic image display panel is structured in such a manner that a viewpoint pitch between each of the viewpoint regions at an optimum observing distance at which a stereopsis visible range becomes maximum becomes smaller than a distance between both eyes of the observer, when the viewpoint number N is 2, and
wherein the stereoscopic image display panel is structured to satisfy a relation of “(e+f) >d>e”, where the viewpoint pitch is e, the distance between both eyes is d, and a range of the viewpoint region that is equal to or less than a 3D crosstalk value set in advance is f.
