  • Publication number: 20130050445
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a video processing apparatus includes a viewer detector that performs face recognition using video photographed by a camera and acquires position information of viewers, a viewer selector that gives priority levels to the viewers on the basis of a predetermined prioritization rule and selects a predetermined number of viewers out of the viewers in order from a viewer having the highest priority level, a viewing area information calculator that calculates, using position information of the selected viewers, a control parameter for setting a viewing area in which the selected viewers are set, a viewing area controller that controls the viewing area according to the control parameter, a display that displays plural parallax images that the viewers present in the viewing area can observe as a stereoscopic video, and an apertural area controller that outputs the plural parallax images displayed on the display in a predetermined direction.
