Abstract:
A stereoscopic computer graphics moving image generating apparatus comprising:projection transformation means for generating a two-dimensional projection image as viewed from a camera using three-dimensional structural information of a subject;rendering means for calculating a viewable image from the output of said projection transformation means;camera sequence generating means for generating camera parameters defining projection transformation in said projection transformation means and capable of generating a moving image by varying said projection transformation;motion calculating means for calculating motion parallax of a displayed subject using at least one of said three-dimensional structural information, the output of said projection transformation means, the output of said rendering means, and the output of said camera sequence generating means; andcamera parameter correcting means for correcting the camera parameter so that at least one of the motion and motion parallax of the displayed subject do not exceed a tolerance range of sense of a viewer, wherein said sense includes at least one of a sense of motion and a sense of depth, and said tolerance range of said sense of motion of a viewer corresponds to said motion, and said tolerance range of said sense of depth of a viewer corresponds to said motion parallax.
