An image processing device for capturing an ultrasonic image is provided with a probe to generate an ultrasonic wave and receives a reflective wave reflected at an object. A detection unit to detect one or more physical quantities of the probe. A display unit to display a tomographic image showing a cross-section of a predetermined position of the object, out of the ultrasonic image of the object. A sensor information acquisition unit to acquire a detection result by a sensor unit as sensor information. In a tomographic image generation unit, regarding the sensor information as a parameter, a reference tomographic image is transformed according to a change of the parameter, to generate the tomographic image. A display control unit to control the display unit to display the generated tomographic image. The present technique can be applied to an ultrasonic examination device.

Generating a tomographic image based on sensor information

A data processing apparatus capable of performing processing in units of block data by using processing results of other block data in a short time is provided, wherein a deblocking filter performs horizontal filtering processing and vertical filtering processing on first block data and second block data obtained by dividing restructured picture data into two in parallel by adjusting their dependency relation.

Data processing apparatus, image processing apparatus, and methods and programs for processing image data

An image display apparatus may include a display section for presenting an image. The apparatus may also include a viewing angle calculation section for determining a viewing angle of a user relative to the display section. Additionally, the apparatus may include an image generation section for generating first image data representing a first image, and for supplying the first image data to the display section for presentation of the first image. The image generation section may generate the first image data based on the user's viewing angle, second image data representing a second image, and third image data representing a third image. The second image may include an object viewed from a first viewing angle and the third image may include the object viewed from a second viewing angle, the first viewing angle and the second viewing angle being different from each other and from the user's viewing angle.

Image display apparatus, image display method, and program

In a band in which a plurality of members are connected to one another through joints serving as connection axes parallel to one another, an inter-panel angle indicating an angle between the members adjacent to each other through the joint is adjusted. Each joint is provided with an angular sensor for detecting the inter-panel angle. Based on the detected inter-panel angle, the peripheral shape indicating a shape of at least a part of a periphery of the object to be measured, on which the band is mounted, is measured. The present technology, for example, is useful for an abdominal girth measurement apparatus.
