ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an image outputting method and apparatus by which an optimum stereoscopic display can be obtained upon visual observation of a plurality of parallax images through a lenticular lens device. In order to allow stereoscopic vision of images through a plurality of lenticular lenses arranged at a predetermined pitch p, picture element data photographed from different points of view are successively outputted for each set of n picture elements for one pitch of the lenticular lenses. The pitch of each set of picture element data corresponding to one lenticular lens is set greater than the arrangement pitch p of the lenticular lenses by an increment .epsilon. which substantially satisfies .epsilon./p=.DELTA./W where .DELTA. is the distance between a pair of small image portions under the lenticular lens device which are visually observed separately by the two eyes through one of the lenticular lenses, and W is the pupil distance of the observer.
