Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a depth-information detecting section, a comparison/detection section, and a control unit. The depth-information detecting section is provided for detecting a peak position of an object in a depth direction, at which the object is displayed at the front in an additional information display area. The comparison/detection section is provided for making a comparison between depth information of the additional information and the peak value of the stereoscopic video data to detect a positional relationship between the stereoscopic data and the display position of the additional information in the depth direction. The control unit is provided for controlling the stereoscopic video data and the display position of the additional information in response to the positional relationship between the stereoscopic video data and the display position of the additional information.
