Abstract:
1. A three-dimensional image display apparatus comprising: a receiver configured to receive video content data; a signal processor configured to display a three-dimensional image corresponding to each of frames of the received video content data, by displaying on a display a three-dimensional display image which is obtained by using a left-eye image and a right-eye image included in each of the frames of the received video content data; a nonvolatile memory configured to store three-dimensional still image data for testing, the three-dimensional still image data comprising a left-eye image and a right-eye image; and a controller configured to display, when an event of requesting a check of a viewing position occurs, a three-dimensional image for testing, by displaying on the display a three-dimensional display image which is obtained by using the left-eye image and the right-eye image included in the three-dimensional still image data for testing, wherein the three-dimensional image for testing includes such a first image that when the three-dimensional image for testing is viewed from a predetermined viewing area, (i) stereoscopic images of a plurality of vertical rods disposed at different depth positions, (ii) a stereoscopic image of a first object having a first shape, which is disposed at a depth position in front of a display surface, and (iii) a stereoscopic image of a second object having the first shape, which is disposed at substantially the same depth position as the display surface, are simultaneously perceived, wherein the plurality of vertical rods, the first object and the second object are different objects in the three-dimensional image for testing, and wherein the three-dimensional image for testing comprises (1) a lower side image area which is perceived as a stereoscopic image part located in a first depth space in front of the display surface, and (2) an upper side image area which is perceived as a stereoscopic image part located in a second depth space behind the display surface, the stereoscopic image of the first object being disposed on the lower side image area, the stereoscopic images of the plurality of vertical rods being disposed at different depth positions on the upper side image area.
