More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to an image information processing apparatus, an image capture apparatus, an image information processing method, and a program that allow a depth value to smoothly transition in a scene change of stereoscopic content. In a case where a rapid change occurs between a depth value 711 in an end portion of a chapter #i and a depth value 714 in a start portion of a chapter #(i+1), entire depth values are temporarily corrected to zero (infinity) on the occasion of the change between the chapters #i and #(i+1). On this occasion, a depth value is allowed to transition for a period of time of, for example, 0.5 seconds or longer. An original depth value 721 in the end portion of the chapter #i is allowed to sequentially transition so that a depth value 722 of the end frame becomes zero. Similarly, a depth value 723 of the start frame in the chapter #(i+1) is set to zero, and is allowed to sequentially transition to an original depth value 724 in the start portion.
