  • Patent number: 10154208
    Abstract: The imaging device is characterized by comprising an image sensor comprising pixels with sensitivity to the visible range and near infrared range and pixels with sensitivity to the near infrared range, a color reproduction processing unit that performs color reproduction processing using signals from the pixels with sensitivity to the visible range and near infrared range and signals from the pixels with sensitivity to the near infrared range among the output signals of the image sensor, a visible light amount calculating unit that calculates the signal quantity in the visible range using the output signal of the image sensor, and a control unit that controls the color reproduction processing unit so that the color reproduction processing is performed on the basis of the signal quantity in the visible range calculated by the visible light amount calculating unit.

  • Publication number: 20110242296
    Abstract: A stereoscopic image display device, for outputting left and right two (2) pieces of output videos, by superimposing an OSD (On Screen Display) on left and right two (2) pieces of output images, comprises: a disparity correction portion for correcting disparity of the input images, thereby outputting corrected images; and an OSD superimpose for superimposing the OSD on each of the corrected image, thereby outputting output images, wherein correction is made in such that the disparity of the corrected images in jumping out direction comes to be small, when displaying the OSD, and thereby lightening visual fatigue due to the fact that an object on the input image is seen in front than the OSD.
