In a high speed image capturing state, a camera signal processing circuit is not needed to perform a signal process at a high screen rate, but at a regular screen rate. In the high speed image capturing mode, raw data of 240 fps received from an image sensorare recorded on a recording devicethrough a conversion processing sectionand a recording device controlling circuit. Raw data that have been decimated and size-converted are supplied to a camera signal processing circuitthrough a pre-processing circuitand an image being captured is displayed on a display sectionwith a signal for which a camera process has been performed. In a reproducing state, raw data are read from the recording deviceat a low screen rate according to a display performance of the display sectionand the raw data that have been read are processed are processed by the pre-processing circuitand the camera signal processing circuitand a reproduced image is displayed by the display section

Image capturing apparatus and image capturing method

A method for processing image information has accessing position information associated with images, identifying a position sequence that provides a series of locations along a pathway corresponding to a subject, and displaying the images in an order of the position sequence. The position sequence is adjusted based on movement of the subject.

High speed image capturing apparatus and method

An image processing apparatus includes: an image synthesis unit generating a synthesized image by inputting images photographed at different positions and connecting strip areas cut from the images. The image synthesis unit generates a left-eye synthesized image applied to display a 3-dimensional image by connecting and synthesizing left-eye image strips set in the images and generates a right-eye synthesized image applied to display a 3-dimensional image by connecting and synthesizing right-eye image strips set in the images. The image synthesis unit performs a process of setting the left-eye image strip and the right-eye image strip in an allowable range of set positions of the left-eye image strip and the right-eye image strip used to generate the left-eye synthesized image and the right-eye synthesized image, which are at different observing points, applicable to display the 3-dimensional images by acquiring the allowable range from a memory or calculating the allowable range.

Image processing apparatus, image capturing apparatus, image processing method, and program

There is provided an image processing device including a feature point detection unit configured to detect feature points from an image, a reliability computation unit configured to compute reliability of each of the detected feature points, and a removal processing unit configured to remove some of the detected feature points on the basis of the reliability so that the number of the remaining feature points in each split region that is obtained by splitting the image into a plurality of regions is within a restricted number of feature points.

Image processing device, image processing method, and program

A method and apparatus for multiview image generation using depth map information is described. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises converting a input image and an input depth map into a projected image and a projected depth map using values from physical pixel locations that map to projected pixel locations, wherein the projected image and the projected depth map are associated with a particular view of the input image, inpainting the projected image and the projected depth map and producing an output image in a direction of the particular view using the inpainted projected image and the inpainted projected depth map.
