ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and a method for generating and outputting stereoscopic images. A user can select either a barrier mode and an interlaced mode. In the barrier mode, images are generated in the barrier scheme, whereas in the interlaced mode, images are generated in the interlaced scheme. In a case where the user selects the interlaced mode, when the images are detected with the left and right camera sensors, the images are rotated by −90 degrees and are then detected. Subsequently, stereoscopic images are generated from rotated images according to the barrier scheme, and generated images are stored along with information on a currently set image generation mode. Next, when the user desires to output the stored stereoscopic images through an interlaced output device for providing stereoscopic images in the interlaced scheme, the stored stereoscopic images are rotated by 90 degrees, and the rotated stereoscopic images are provided to the interlaced output device. Accordingly, without an additional configuration unit for a special purpose, the stereoscopic images stored in the barrier scheme can be output as normal stereoscopic images through the interlaced output device.
