A parallax adjustment device including a parallax adjustment unit configured to perform parallax adjustment on a left-eye image and a right-eye image that are obtained by imaging, and a data processing unit configured to associate metadata regarding the parallax adjustment with image data including the left-eye image and the right-eye image. In the method, a pre-processed semiconductor substrate is first positioned in a sputtering chamber. The switch and the electrically operable device are electrically connected by programmable controllers and a communications bus. The BSC then sends an instruction to a Packet Control Function to tear down the associated resources, and the packet-data connection is released by a Packet Data Service Node in response to the tearing down of the resources by the PCF.
