  • Publication number: 20120113221
    Abstract: A combination image has a pair of 3D-presentation images horizontally or vertically arranged and resulting from compressing original 3D-presentation images into half size. One of the left-hand and right-hand haves or the upper and lower halves of the combination image is set as a to-be-enhanced image while the other is set as a reference image. A block having a prescribed number of pixels is formed in the to-be-enhanced image. The formed block extends at and around an interpolation object position. The reference image is searched for a reference block matching in pattern with the formed block. A value at a pixel in the reference block which positionally corresponds to the interpolation object position is decided to be a candidate value for an interpolation-result pixel. The interpolation-result pixel having the candidate value is placed at the interpolation object position to change the to-be-enhanced image into a resolution-enhanced image.
