Abstract: A division circuit 11 divides input frames included in an input video Vi into plural pieces of partial data that are not superimposed with each other and outputs one piece of partial data for one input frame while switching selection of the partial data. A memory control circuit 14 writes the partial data output from the division circuit 11 in a frame memory 15, and reads a reconstruction frame that is configured by plural pieces of partial data based on a plurality of input frames that are different from each other and has a same size as the input frames from the frame memory 15. A composition circuit 19 composites the reconstruction frame read from the frame memory 15, and obtains an output video Vo that includes a composited frame. Thereby, an amount of access to the frame memory is reduced without deteriorating image quality significantly.

Abstract: When first and second region-processing sections (510, 520) calculate in parallel backlight luminances required for an input image halved by a regional image division section (505) included in an area-active drive processing section (5) of a liquid crystal display device, LED data (Db1, Db2) are exchanged for each other, allowing reference to backlight luminances not calculated for one region but calculated for the other region. As a result, when an area is illuminated by surrounding backlight sources, the actual display luminance can be calculated correctly. Thus, pixel display can be provided with correct display tones across the entire screen, thereby preventing a reduction in display quality.

Abstract: A display position information acquisition section of an image display device outputs display position identification data for identifying a display position on the screen. An LED output value calculation section divides an input image into a plurality of areas and obtains LED data which is data for emission luminances of LEDs in the areas. At this time, emission luminances of LEDs in a non-display area are set to 0 on the basis of the display position identification data. A display luminance calculation section obtains display luminances of the areas based upon the emission luminances. A partial display correction filter generation section generates a partial display correction filter having correction data for each pixel stored therein, based upon the display position identification data. An LCD data calculation section obtains liquid crystal data based upon the input image, the display luminances, and the correction data.

Abstract: A luminance gradient calculating unit of a stereoscopic image generating device calculates luminance gradient indicating amount in change of luminance between a pixel of interest and an adjacent pixel, a right eye image generating unit corrects luminance of the pixel with that correction amount of the same sign as the luminance gradient such that the greater the absolute value of luminance gradient or the smaller the distance is the greater the luminance is. The left eye image generating unit performs correction of the luminance of the pixel with a correction amount of the opposite sign of the luminance gradient. This enables stereoscopy due to difference generated in luminance distribution between the left eye image and right eye image, and also the position of pixel is not changed and thus can be kept from appearing in double or not readily appearing in double.

Abstract: An image processing device (10a) that receives a plurality of individual images including at least two images that form a stereoscopic image and generates a display image displaying the plurality of input individual images simultaneously on a display unit. The image processing device includes an image conversion unit (111) that converts at least one image among the input images that form the stereoscopic image into a planar image, and an image generation unit (151) that generates the display image by synthesizing the planar image that has been converted by the image conversion unit (111) and an image among the plurality of input images that has not been converted into a planer image by the image conversion unit (111).

Abstract: In a three-dimensional image generating apparatus, a luminance gradient calculating portion calculates a luminance gradient, which indicates the amount of change in luminance between a pixel of interest and a pixel adjacent thereto, a right-eye image generating portion corrects a pixel luminance in a correction amount having the same sign as the luminance gradient, and a left-eye image generating portion corrects a pixel luminance in a correction amount having the opposite sign to the luminance gradient. As a result, there is a difference in luminance distribution between left-eye and right-eye images, so that stereoscopic viewing is made possible without calculating depth information, and there is no change in pixel positions, so that the images do not appear doubled or they are resistant to appearing doubled.
