THREE-DIMENSIONAL DISPLAY DEVICE, THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGE CAPTURING DEVICE, AND POINTING DETERMINATION METHOD
First Claim
1. A three-dimensional display device, comprising:
- a three-dimensional display unit that displays a three-dimensional pointing image for receiving a user'"'"'s pointing, the three-dimensional pointing image including a right-eye pointing image and a left-eye pointing image;
a pointing position detection unit that detects the user'"'"'s pointing position on a display surface of the three-dimensional display unit;
a dominant-eye information obtaining unit that obtains a piece of dominant-eye information representing a dominant-eye of the user;
a detection area determination unit that determines a detection area of the pointing position on the display surface of the three-dimensional display unit based on at least the dominant-eye information; and
a determination unit that determines whether the pointing position detected by the pointing position detection unit is within the detection area to thereby receive the user'"'"'s pointing corresponding to the three-dimensional pointing image.

Abstract
The object is to appropriately determine a user'"'"'s pointing position even when a pointing image for receiving user'"'"'s pointing is three-dimensionally displayed. There are included a three-dimensional display unit 13 that displays a three-dimensional pointing image for receiving a user'"'"'s pointing, the three-dimensional pointing image including a right-eye pointing image and a left-eye pointing image; a pointing position detection unit 16 that detects the user'"'"'s pointing position on the display surface of the three-dimensional display unit 13; a dominant-eye information setting unit 17 that sets a piece of dominant-eye information representing a dominant-eye of the user; a pointing position detection area determination unit 18 that determines a detection area of the pointing position on the display surface of the three-dimensional display unit 13 based on at least the dominant-eye information; and a determination unit 19 that determines whether the pointing position detected by the pointing position detection unit 16 is within the detection area to receive the user'"'"'s pointing corresponding to the three-dimensional pointing image.

21. A pointing determination method using a three-dimensional display unit that displays a three-dimensional pointing image for receiving a user'"'"'s pointing, the three-dimensional pointing image including a right-eye pointing image and a left-eye pointing image;
- a pointing position detection unit that detects the user'"'"'s pointing position on a display surface of the three-dimensional display unit; and
a dominant-eye information obtaining unit that obtains a piece of dominant-eye information representing a dominant-eye of the user,the pointing determination method comprising; a detection area determination step to determine a detection area of the pointing position on the display surface of the three-dimensional display unit based on the dominant-eye information obtained by the dominant-eye information obtaining unit; a pointing position detection step to detect the user'"'"'s pointing position on the surface of the three-dimensional display unit with the pointing position detection unit; and a determination step to determine whether the pointing position detected by the pointing position detection unit is within the detection area. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25)
