Patent ID: 8670025

Claim:
A stereoscopic video display system comprising: a display device for displaying stereoscopic video; an image pickup element for generating image data; a position determiner for processing the image data received by the image pickup element to determine position information of at least one object identified in the image data; a plurality of light output sections each having one or more light transmitters, each light transmitter configured to output timing signals having a signal strength based on the determined position information; and at least one set of shutter eyeglasses including a light receiving section for receiving timing signals output from at least one of the light transmitters of the light output sections, wherein the light output sections include a light output section at a right end, a left end, an upper central part, and a lower central part of the display device, wherein each of the light output sections include a plurality of light transmitters configured to output timing signals at a plurality of different strength levels, wherein the position information is relative to a position of the image pickup element and includes vertical position information, horizontal position information, and distance information for each of the objects identified in the image data, and wherein for a given object, a signal strength of the timing signals directed towards said object is directly related to a determined distance of said object from the image pickup element.
