Patent number: 10080013Abstract: A stereoscopic image is generated by applying three-dimensional processing to two or more images, which are obtained through photographing from different positions. The stereoscopic image is stereoscopically displayed, and an instruction to start changing a parallax level of the stereoscopic image is received. In response to the instruction to start changing the parallax level, stereoscopic display of the stereoscopic image is switched into two-dimensional display of the two or more images overlapped with each other. An instruction to change the parallax level is received. In response to the instruction to change the parallax level, the two or more images are two-dimensionally displayed with the parallax level of the images being changed.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2010Date of Patent: September 18, 2018Assignee: FUJIFILM CORPORATIONInventors: Daisuke Shikata, Junji Hayashi, Satoshi Yanagita

Patent number: 9369699Abstract: A stereoscopic image display device that is capable of reading out and setting a stereoscopic effect control value suitable for a monitor size of a display monitor used to display an image is disclosed. A stereoscopic image for stereoscopically displaying an image is generated based on a multi-viewpoint image, and the stereoscopic image is displayed on a display monitor capable of stereoscopic display. At this time, a stereoscopic effect of the stereoscopic image displayed on the display monitor is controlled. A controlled stereoscopic effect control value and a monitor size of the display monitor used to display the stereoscopic image when the stereoscopic effect is controlled is associated with the multi-viewpoint image and recorded in a recording medium.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2012Date of Patent: June 14, 2016Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventor: Satoshi Yanagita

Patent number: 9219906Abstract: Three-dimensional processing is applied to more than one images taken from different points of view to generate a stereoscopic image, and the stereoscopic image is stereoscopically displayed. An instruction to control a stereoscopic effect of the stereoscopically displayed stereoscopic image is received, and the three-dimensional processing is applied to the more than one images to achieve a stereoscopic effect according to the instruction. Then, control values of the stereoscopic effect according to the instruction are recorded in a recording unit with the control values being associated with the more than one images. At this time, if there are the control values of the stereoscopic effect recorded in the recording unit, difference values between the control values of the stereoscopic effect according to the instruction and the recorded control values of the stereoscopic effect are recorded in the recording unit.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2010Date of Patent: December 22, 2015Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Satoshi Yanagita, Daisuke Shikata

Publication number: 20110228236Abstract: A printing apparatus with low cost which precisely positions a lenticular sheet while not lowering the usage efficiency of the sheet may be provided. When a margin area is not intentionally formed at an edge portion of a lenticular sheet, based on the print data and the lenticular sheet size, an area serving as an image forming area will certainly be set even with the misalignment in print position of an image. When a margin area is intentionally formed at an edge portion of the lenticular sheet, based on the print data i.e. the set value of the margin area and the lenticular sheet size, the area serving as an image forming area will certainly be set even with the misalignment in print position of an image is calculated. An edge portion of the area necessarily serving as an image forming area obtained by steps S14 and S16 will be determined as the print position of a detection pattern.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 7, 2011Publication date: September 22, 2011Inventor: Satoshi YANAGITA

Publication number: 20110188124Abstract: Present invention provides an image print sheet printable in high accuracy without reducing productivity. After a lenticular sheet 101 and a reception layer sheet 102 on which a detection pattern 103 is printed are inserted in an attachment apparatus 110 from insertion openings, the optical density is measured repeatedly by a density sensor 111 while rotating and parallel-moving the lenticular sheet 101. When the maximum density is measured, the reception layer sheet 102 is attached to the lenticular sheet 101. In this way, an image print sheet 100 having the detection pattern 103 parallel to the longitudinal direction of convex parts 101a and coinciding with the vertexes of the convex parts 101a is produced. When printing on the image print sheet 100, the detection pattern is detected by a photo-sensor, an azimuth adjustment and a print start position determination will be performed. Consequently, printing with high accuracy is available.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 26, 2011Publication date: August 4, 2011Inventors: Satoshi YANAGITA, Ryo Imai, Maki Saito, Kenji Saito, Atsushi Misawa
