Embodiments include systems and methods for an electronic device, which includes circuitry configured to detect a size of a face from a captured image. The circuitry is also configured to identify a distortion correction parameter which varies according to a size of the detected face. The circuitry is also configured to correct a distortion of the face within the captured image by utilizing the distortion correction parameter identified based on the size of the detected face from the captured image.

Optical distortion compensation

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided an image processing apparatus including a detection unit, a strength determination unit, and a processor. The detection unit is configured to detect at least one area in an image. The strength determination unit is configured to determine strength of processing for a unit of processing of the image, based on a distance between a location of the area being detected by the detection unit and a location of the unit of processing of the image. The processor is configured to perform the processing on the image, per the unit of processing, at the strength being determined by the strength determination unit.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and program

There is provided an image processing device including a motion compensation section which compensates motion between a target image and a reference image, an image compositing section which generates a composited image by compositing the target image and the reference image, the motion therebetween having been compensated, and a spatial filtering section which performs spatial filtering of the composited image. The spatial filtering section may perform spatial filtering of the composited image by using an &#x3b5;-filter.

Image processing device and image processing method

There is provided an imaging device including a detection section which detects motion of the image processing device, a blend ratio calculation section which calculates a blend ratio of a first motion compensation image to a second motion compensation image, the first motion compensation image and the second motion compensation image being determined from a first motion vector and a second motion vector each indicating motion between frames, respectively, based on the motion of the image processing device detected by the detection section, a blend section which generates a motion compensation image by blending the first motion compensation image and the second motion compensation image in accordance with the blend ratio calculated by the blend ratio calculation section, and an addition section which adds the motion compensation image generated by the blend section to a target image.

Described herein is an image processing apparatus for calculating a motion vector between two screen images including a target screen image and a reference screen image, including: a base face motion vector calculation section; a high-accuracy base face motion vector calculation section; a reduction face motion vector calculation section; a high-accuracy reduction face motion vector calculation section; first and second base face search range determination sections; and a selection section configured to select a calculation section to be used from among the base face motion vector calculation section, high-accuracy base face motion vector calculation section, reduction face motion vector calculation section and high-accuracy reduction face motion vector calculation section and select whether the first or second base face search range determination section should be used and then select, where use of any of the determination sections is determined, a determination section to be used from between the determination sections.
