Abstract:
1. An image processing device comprising: a first obtaining unit configured to obtain a first parallax number representing a parallax image that is actually observed from a predetermined viewpoint position from among parallax images that are displayed on a display unit which includes a display element having a plurality of pixels arranged therein and a light beam control element for controlling emitting direction of light beams emitted from the display element and which is capable of displaying a stereoscopic image that includes a plurality of parallax images having mutually different parallaxes; a specifying unit configured to, as a panel parameter candidate, specify a first panel parameter candidate or a second panel parameter candidate, the first panel parameter candidate and the second panel parameter candidate being any values within a possible range of values of a panel parameter which is related to a correspondence relationship between the display element and the light beam control element; a first calculator configured to, using the first or second panel parameter candidate specified by the specifying unit and using a first panel parameter indicating the panel parameter at the time of observation, calculate a second parallax number which represents a parallax image that is expected to be observed from the viewpoint position when the panel parameter is changed from the first panel parameter to the first or second panel parameter candidate specified by the specifying unit; a second obtaining unit configured to obtain a third parallax number which represents a parallax image that is supposed to be observed from the viewpoint position; and a selector configured to, when an error between a second parallax number that is calculated when the first panel parameter candidate is specified by the specifying unit, and the third parallax number is smaller than an error between a second parallax number that is calculated when the second panel parameter candidate that is different from the first panel parameter candidate is specified, and the third parallax number, select the first panel parameter candidate as the panel parameter.
