  • the additional information is obtained from the first-perspective image data and the second-perspective image data in operation S 820 .
  • the additional information may either be transmitted after being included in the first-perspective image data and/or the second-perspective image data, or be separately transmitted. In the case where the additional information is separately transmitted, the additional information may be separately received from an external server or an image data outputting device 100 .
  • the first-perspective image data and the second-perspective image data are displayed based on the additional information in operation S 830 .
  • displaying the first-perspective image data will be described in detail under an assumption that the additional information includes pair information and perspective information.
  • the received first-perspective image data is stored based on the pair information and perspective information.
  • the first-perspective image data may be stored in a first buffer 442 in which left-perspective image data of a first pair is stored, a second buffer 444 in which right-perspective image data of the first pair is stored, a third buffer 446 in which left-perspective image data of a second pair is stored, and a fourth buffer 448 in which right-perspective image data of the second pair is stored, as illustrated in FIG. 4 .
  • the first-perspective image data and the second-perspective image data are both stored in the buffers, the first-perspective image data and the second-perspective image data are sequentially displayed. At this point, the first-perspective image data and the second-perspective image data are repeatedly displayed a predetermined number of times, and are deleted from the buffers after being repeatedly displayed the predetermined number of times.
  • aspects of the present invention can also be written as computer programs and can be implemented in general-use or specific-use digital computers that execute the programs using a computer-readable recording medium.
  • Examples of the computer-readable recording medium include magnetic storage media (e.g., ROM, floppy disks, hard disks, etc.) and optical recording media (e.g., CD-ROMs, or DVDs).
  • aspects of the present invention may also be realized as a data signal embodied in a carrier wave and comprising a program readable by a computer and transmittable over the Internet.
