Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A video signal processing device processes a 3D video signal including a left-eye image and a right-eye image. The video signal processing device includes an OSD control unit generating a left-eye superimposition image and a right-eye superimposition image, an OSD superimposing unit superimposing the left-eye superimposition image on the left-eye image and the right-eye superimposition image on the right-eye image, so as to generate an output image, and a video output unit providing the output image. The OSD control unit includes a first register holding a left-eye parameter for generating the left-eye superimposition image, and a second register holding a right-eye parameter for generating the right-eye superimposition image. The OSD control unit generates the left-eye superimposition image and the right-eye superimposition image by shifting positions of pixels in a predetermined image based on the left-eye parameter and the right-eye parameter.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A video signal processing device which processes a three-dimensional (3D) video signal including a left-eye image and a right-eye image using a frame-sequential technique, said video signal processing device comprising: an on-screen display (OSD) control unit configured to generate a left-eye superimposition image and a right-eye superimposition image; a superimposing unit configured to superimpose the left-eye superimposition image on the left-eye image a…
