Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method of generating an image to be observed as a stereoscopic image when viewed binocularly through an eye-side surface of a lenticular lens, in which a plurality of parallax images are arranged on a back surface of each of lenses of the lenticular lens or light beams corresponding to the plurality of images are input to the back surface, the method including parallax per unit length is made relatively smaller, in at least part, at a position closer to each edge of each lens in a direction orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the lens.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of generating an image to be observed as a stereoscopic image when viewed binocularly through an eye-side surface of a lenticular lens, in which a plurality of parallax images are arranged on a back surface of each of lenses of the lenticular lens or light beams corresponding to the plurality of images are input to the back surface, the method being characterized in that: the plurality of parallax images include two parallax images and images obtained through interpolation between the two parallax images, wherein the interpolation causes parallax of adjacent images to be made larger at a position closer to the center of each lens; and the images are arranged in or inputted to areas on a back surface of each lens, respectively, the areas each having the same width in a direction orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the lens.
