Abstract: There is generated a display image of a state in which a three-dimensional virtual space, including a first model and a second model to which a predetermined texture is pasted, is imaged by a virtual camera, and the generated image is displayed on a display device. In the generated display image, there is rendered, at a front surface of the first model, a silhouette model which is a silhouette model that is present at a position corresponding to the second model present behind the first model with respect to a view direction of the virtual camera in the virtual space, and to which a silhouette image of the second model is pasted.

Abstract: In accordance with an operation content indicated by a user's operation data, an amount of scrolling is calculated, and a display range of a table to be displayed on a display apparatus is moved in the table in accordance with the amount of the scrolling. With respect to respective drawing areas, whether or not drawing start points, from which drawing character strings are to be drawn, stay within the display range is determined. When the drawing start point of a drawing area, among the drawing areas, falls outside the display range, the drawing start point of the drawing area is changed to a position which is in the drawing area and also which stays within the display range. The character strings are arranged in the respective drawing areas from the drawing start points set to the respective drawing areas, and the table in the display range is displayed on the display apparatus together with the arranged character strings.

Abstract: A three-dimensional puzzle game apparatus includes an LCD on which a three-dimensional puzzle is displayed. The three-dimensional puzzle includes a plurality of blocks arranged in each of three-dimensional directions in a virtual three-dimensional space. Furthermore, a hint numeral indicating the number of blocks to be left in a block row is displayed as information being a hint for searching a block to be left from the block row, for example. When a deleting instruction is performed on a block by utilizing a touch panel, for example, it is then determined that whether or not the block is a block to be left. When it is determined that the block is not a block to be left, the block is erased. When it is determined that all the remaining blocks are blocks to be left, it is determined that the three-dimensional puzzle is solved.

Abstract: A game device 10 displays an image on an upper LCD 22 capable of producing stereoscopic display using two images. Based on two captured images of a predetermined image-capture object captured respectively by two image-capturing devices, the game device 10 calculates a positional relationship between the predetermined image-capture object and each of the image-capturing devices. Then, the game device 10 determines a zero-parallax distance using at least one of the positional relationships so that it is a distance in accordance with a distance from the image-capturing device to the image-capture object, and determines display positions of the two captured images to be displayed on the upper LCD 22 in accordance with the zero-parallax distance.

Next, each of the virtual objects is rendered and combined based on one pair of virtual cameras such that a relative position, with respect to the screen of a stereoscopic display device, of a virtual object, viewed by a user through a screen of the stereoscopic display device, matches a relative position of the virtual object with respect to a stereoscopic vision reference surface for the virtual object in the virtual space.

Abstract: An information processing section of a game apparatus executes a program which includes: acquiring a real world image; setting the most recent view matrix of a virtual camera based on a detected marker S204; reading the previous view matrix S206; calculating correction view matrixes so as to change a blending ratio at which the most recent view matrix is blended depending on a distance S208 to S210; selecting the correction view matrix such that the longer the distance between an object and the marker is, the lower the blending ratio is; and rendering a virtual object in a frame buffer in a superimposed manner by using the selected correction view matrix.

Abstract: An example game device sets a reference distance for a distance from a real camera in an image-capturing direction, and displays a right captured image and a left captured image in a display area so that a reference point, which is a point that is away from the real camera by the reference distance, is displayed at a center in the display area. Thus, when an image produced by using an augmented reality technique is stereoscopically displayed, it is possible to display a virtual image in a manner easy to view.

Abstract: A game device 10 calculates, for each of two real cameras, position/orientation information representing a relative position and orientation with respect to a predetermined image-capture object, and based on this calculates a camera interval in the predetermined coordinate system. Then, it calculates correspondence information between a unit length in the predetermined coordinate system and a unit length in a real space by using the calculated distance in the predetermined coordinate system and the camera interval in the real world.

Abstract: A real camera image of a real space that is captured by a real camera is obtained. Color information about a plurality of sampling points in the real camera image is obtained. Next, an average color is calculated based on the obtained color information about the plurality of sampling points. Based on the calculated average color, parameters relating to the color and brightness of a light source set in a virtual space are set. A virtual object image is generated by capturing, with a virtual camera, an image of a virtual object existing in the virtual space, which virtual object is illuminated by the light source whose parameters have been set. Then, a superimposed image, in which the virtual object image is superimposed on the real camera image, is generated and displayed on a display device.
