ABSTRACT:
The positions of the visual points of images picked up by first and second cameras are controlled by producing a first model of a picked up plane of the image of an object in a three-dimensional coordinate system based on coordinates of the image pickup elements of the first camera and an image pickup angle of the first camera relative to an image of the object picked up, producing a second model of a picked up plane of the image of the object in the three-dimensional coordinate system based on coordinates of the image pickup elements of the second camera and an image pickup angle of the second camera relative to an image of the object picked up, mapping image data output from the first camera onto the first model, mapping image data output from the second camera onto the second model, mathematically rotating and moving the first and second models onto which image data are mapped within an angle .alpha. formed by the first and second cameras in the three-dimensional coordinate system by angles .beta. and (.alpha.- .beta.), and mixing the image data mapped onto the first model and the image data mapped onto the second model by a mixing ratio corresponding to the rotation angles of the first and second models.
