(57) Abstract :
A control section (2) acquires character-shaped object information from a content memory section (31). A display position setting
processing section (21) calculates the mean position of left and right parallactic images of each of two adjacent characters.
Further, when the mean positions overlap each other, the position setting processing section (21) adjusts the display positions of
the parallactic images so that the mean position do not overlap each other, and save the display positions of the parallactic images
in an information retaining section (24). A parallactic image generating section (7) generates parallactic images in accordance
with the display positions of the parallactic images as saved in the information retaining section (24). This makes it possible to
generate parallactic images that allow characters to be stereoscopically displayed in such a way that adjacent characters do not
overlap each other.
