An edge detecting apparatus according to the present invention includes: a first determining unit configured to determine, based on an input image, at least one of a distance between local maximum pixels which are pixels of which gradation values are local maximum values and a distance between local minimum pixels which are pixels of which gradation values are local minimum values; and a detecting unit configured to detect an edge from the input image with a detection sensitivity based on the distance determined by the first determining unit.

Edge detecting apparatus and edge detecting method

An image processing apparatus according to the present invention includes: an obtaining unit configured to obtain a brightness range value; and a generating unit configured to generate a display-image data on the basis of the brightness range value obtained by the obtaining unit, wherein the generating unit generates the display-image data on the basis of two or more of first image data, second image data, and brightness difference data such that, when the brightness range value obtained by the obtaining unit is within a predetermined range, a maximum gradation value of the dynamic range of the generated display-image data steadily approaches a maximum gradation value of the dynamic range of the first image data as the brightness range value obtained by the obtaining unit decreases.

Image processing apparatus and image processing method

An image-processing device is configured to detect a motion region within an input image; generate an intermediate image from an N-th frame and an (N+1)-th frame; perform processing of reducing a high-frequency component of spatial frequency on the intermediate image; and output an image of which a frame rate is increased by insertion of the intermediate image having undergone the processing between the N-th frame and the (N+1)-th frame. When a target position at which a pixel value of the intermediate image is to be calculated lies within the motion region, a pixel value of the intermediate image at the target position is calculated using a pixel value of the N-th frame and a pixel value of the (N+1)-th frame at a position in the vicinity of the target position and outside the motion region.

Image-processing device and control method thereof

An image display device includes: a light transmitting unit having transmission wavelength characteristics corresponding to each of a plurality of colors; an illuminating unit configured to emit light corresponding to each of the plurality of colors, the illuminating unit being configured to emit, with respect to at least one predetermined color, light including first light and second light whose emission peak wavelengths are both within a range of the transmission wavelength characteristics corresponding to the predetermined color and whose emission peak wavelengths differ from one another; and a control unit configured to control an intensity of each of the light of the plurality of emission spectra corresponding to the predetermined color in accordance with a color distribution of the image.

Image display device and control method thereof

A video processing apparatus that can be connected to a video playback apparatus includes an input unit configured to input video data from the video playback apparatus, an interpolation unit configured to generate interpolated frame image data of input video data, and an output unit configured to output the interpolated frame image data as interpolated video data, wherein the interpolation unit generates different interpolated frame image data according to a playback mode of the video playback apparatus.
