Abstract: A plurality of parallax images which are time-divisionally displayed are processed so that correct parallax can be displayed even during motion picture display. When a plurality of image streams of input signals to the video signal processing unit 120 are captured or generated with the same timing, interpolation processing for generating an interpolated image in terms of time is performed on at least one of the plurality of image streams, and the change of the apparent parallax is suppressed. More specifically, interpolation processing in terms of time is performed, so that a time difference of a time at which interpolation images of a plurality of image streams are generated is the same as a time difference of operation for separating the corresponding parallax images.
