An information processing device that includes an exposure control unit alternately repeats a first frame and a second frame. An infrared light irradiation control unit performs irradiation of infrared light in a predetermined infrared light irradiation period which is equal to or less than an aggregate period of the first frame and the second frame. An image signal acquisition unit acquires a first image signal which is the image signal in the first frame and a second image signal which is the image signal in the second frame. An extraction unit extracts a visible light intensity per unit time and an infrared light intensity per unit time from the first image signal and the second image signal. A generation unit generates an image signal corresponding to visible light and an image signal corresponding to the infrared light.

Image processing device, imaging device, and imaging method

An image processing apparatus includes a separation unit, a Bayer image signal supply unit, and a signal processing unit. The separation unit separates and removes, in input image signals in which pixel signals each including an invisible light component are arranged in an array different from a Bayer array, the invisible light components from the pixel signals. The Bayer image signal supply unit arranges the pixel signals from which the invisible light components have been removed in the Bayer array and supplies the pixel signals as Bayer image signals. The signal processing unit subjects the Bayer image signals to predetermined signal processing.

Image processing apparatus, image pickup device, image pickup apparatus, and image processing method

There are provided an apparatus and a method for executing calculation of a global motion vector (GMV) with a high degree of reliability. Local motion vectors (LMV) corresponding to blocks and block weights as reliability indicators of the LMVs of the respective blocks are calculated, and the global motion vector (GMV) is calculated on the basis of the block weights. By calculating a degree of reliability of the local motion vector (LMV) corresponding to each block of a target block and near-field blocks adjacent to the target block and a degree of similarity between the local motion vectors (LMV) of the target block and each near-field block, the block weight is calculated through arithmetic processing to which the degree of reliability and the degree of similarity are applied. With the present configuration, it is possible to efficiently calculate the global motion vector (GMV) with a high degree of reliability.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and program

A photographing apparatus is provided, which includes: a correction data acquiring section that acquires correction data for image correction; a recording section that records the correction data acquired by the correction data acquiring section; a photographing condition acquiring section that acquires image photographing conditions; a retrieving section that retrieves the correction data, corresponding to the photographing conditions acquired by the photographing condition acquiring section, from the correction data recorded in the recording section; and a photographing section that photographs an image on the basis of the correction data retrieved by the retrieving section.
