Claim Text:
1. An information processor, comprising: an imaging section having a first imaging system and a second imaging system for photographing a subject from different directions; an obtaining section for obtaining determination information for determining a geometrical relationship between an arrangement direction of said first imaging system and said second imaging system, and a horizontal direction; a determination section for determining said geometrical relationship based on said determination information; and a generating section for executing one generating process selected from a first generating process and a second generating process that are different from each other according to a determination result of said geometrical relationship based on an imaged result of said imaging section so as to generate a stereoscopic image of said subject; wherein a first source image obtained from said imaged result is a target for said first generating process, a second source image obtained from said imaged result is a target for said second generating process, and selecting rules of said first source image and said second source image from said imaged result are different from each other; and wherein said selecting rules are such that; when said arrangement direction is determined as being the horizontal direction, a first image obtained by said first imaging system and a second image obtained by said second imaging system are adopted as said first source image, and when said arrangement direction is determined as being other than the horizontal direction, one image of said first image and said second image is adopted as said second source image.
