Abstract:
An image processing system for processing a three-dimensional image, comprising:image input means for inputting a two-dimensional image; first-curve setting means for setting a first curve, which serves as a base line of a canvas, in a three-dimensional space; second-curve setting means for setting a second curve, which is different from the first curve, in the three-dimensional space; interpolation-curve generating means for generating at least one interpolation curve for interpolating the first curve and the second curve; and image generating means for creating the three-dimensional image by pasting the image input by said image input means onto the canvas whose base line is one of the first curve, the second curve, and the interpolation curve, wherein said image generating means constantly moves the base line of the canvas to which the input image is to be pasted between the first curve, the second curve, and the interpolation curve.
