An image processing apparatus has a processing circuit. The processing circuit functions as a three-dimensional data generation unit, a two-dimensional data generation unit, and a recognition image generation unit. The three-dimensional data generation unit generates three-dimensional data of an object ton the basis of an image of the object on which object information represented by a character or a symbol is attached, and a distance image indicating a distance between a reference position and the object for each pixel. The two-dimensional data generation unit flattens the three-dimensional data generated by the three-dimensional data generation unit to generate two-dimensional data. The recognition image generation unit generates a recognition image which is used to recognize the object information, on the basis of the two-dimensional data generated by two-dimensional data generation unit.

An embodiment of a vehicle monitoring apparatus has a determiner and a reader. The determiner determines whether or not a specific site of a vehicle exists at least in an area of an image, the image imaged by an imager, the area being one of multiple areas into which the image is divided by dividing line that are substantially orthogonal to a direction of travel of the vehicle. The reader reads information on a license plate mounted to the vehicle from the area in case that the determiner determines the specific site of the vehicle is determined to exist in the area.

According to one embodiment, an information processor divides input image data for a plurality of information processors so as to perform a super resolution process as a distributed processing. The super resolution process generates a high resolution image based on a plurality of low resolution input images. The information processor includes a division point determining unit, a division processor, and a combination processor. The division point determining unit determines a division point for an input image of a sequence of image frames. The division processor divides, for each of the information processors, the input image at the division point, and allocates each divided input image to each corresponding one of the information processors.

According to one embodiment, an IP broadcast system includes a transmitting side and a receiving side connected to the transmitting side through a broadcast network on an IP network. The transmitting side includes a multiplexer which generates a standardized multiplex frame including at least a header field and an information field by multiplexing a plurality of RTP packets. The receiving side includes a buffer which temporarily holds the multiplex frame from the broadcast network and a program reproducer which retrieves and analyzes the multiplex frame from the buffer, extracts a reproduction clock shared by a plurality of programs, demultiplexes a plurality of TSs for each program from the multiplex frame, and based on the reproduction clock, reproduces the programs from each TS.

A first prediction unit performs intra-prediction of an original image corresponding to an inter-frame coded frame to produce a first prediction residual and a prediction parameter. A second prediction unit performs intra-prediction of local decode data corresponding to the inter-frame coded data with the prediction parameter to produce a second prediction residual. A subtractor calculates difference data between the first prediction residual and the second prediction residual. A third prediction unit performs intra-prediction of data corresponding to a decoded frame with the prediction parameter to produce a third prediction residual, when the inter-frame coded data is decoded and transformed into the intra-frame coded data. An adder calculates addition data of the third prediction residual and the differential data. An intra-frame coding unit performs intra-frame coding to the addition data.
