Recording apparatus, recording method, reproducing apparatus, reproducing method, program, and recording/producing apparatus

Abstract

A recording apparatus includes: a parallax detecting unit detecting a parallax between L and R images included in 3D contents to be recorded; and a recording control unit recording both of the L and R images at a first section at which the parallax between the L and R images is greater than a threshold value and recording one of the L and R images at a second section at which the parallax between the L and R images is less than the threshold value.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A reproducing apparatus comprising:
 a reproducing unit reproducing 3D contents including a first section, at which both of L and R images are recorded, and a second section, at which one of the L and R images is recorded, depending on whether a parallax is greater than a threshold value;   a generation unit generating, based on one of the L and R images of the second section obtained by reproducing the 3D contents, the other image which is not recorded as an image of the 3D contents; and   a display control unit displaying the L and R images obtained by reproducing the 3D contents when displaying the images of the first section and displaying the one image obtained by reproducing the 3D contents and the other image generated by the generation unit when displaying the images of the second section.   
     
     
         2 . The reproducing apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an analysis unit analyzing identification information indicating which image is recorded between the L and R images recorded in correspondence with image data of the second section of the 3D contents,   wherein the generation unit specifies the other image which is not recorded as the image of the 3D contents based on the identification information to generate the other image.   
     
     
         3 . The reproducing apparatus according to  claim 2 ,
 wherein the analysis unit specifies the parallax between the L and R images by analyzing the identification information, and   wherein the generation unit generates the other image having the parallax specified by the analysis unit with respect to the one image.   
     
     
         4 . A reproducing method comprising:
 reproducing 3D contents including a first section, at which both of L and R images are recorded, and a second section, at which one of the L and R images is recorded, depending on whether a parallax is greater than a threshold value;   generating, based on one of the L and R images of the second section obtained by reproducing the 3D contents, the other image which is not recorded as an image of the 3D contents; and   displaying the L and R images obtained by reproducing the 3D contents when displaying the images of the first section and displaying the one image obtained by reproducing the 3D contents and the generated other image when displaying the images of the second section.   
     
     
         5 . A program causing a computer to execute a process including:
 reproducing 3D contents including a first section, at which both of L and R images are recorded, and a second section, at which one of the L and R images is recorded, depending on whether a parallax is greater than a threshold value;   generating, based on one of the L and R images of the second section obtained by reproducing the 3D contents, the other image which is not recorded as an image of the 3D contents; and   displaying the L and R images obtained by reproducing the 3D contents when displaying the images of the first section and displaying the one image obtained by reproducing the 3D contents and the generated other image when displaying the images of the second section.
