ABSTRACT:
A center of rotation O of a camera10is determined on an axis45passing through the position between pickup target objects A, B and the camera10in the direction from a lens3to a CCD2.Before rotation (in a first state), an optical axis30of the camera10swings to the left with the point O as center and with an angle è with respect to the axis45,whereas after rotation (in the second state), the optical axis30swings to the right with the point O as center and with angle è with respect to the axis45.The pickup target objects A, B, C form images on a pickup face2a, respectively. In order that the formed image b2, for example, of the image picked up after movement may coincide with the formed image b1of the image before movement, the image after rotation is moved in the cross direction. Then, the image before rotation and the image obtained by moving the image after rotation in the cross direction are input to a display which allows a stereovision due to binocular parallax, which are seen as a stereoscopic image.
