In a viewing object display set, it is possible to prevent a reduction in a sense of reality when a viewing object is seen. Specifically, the display set for viewing the viewing object includes the viewing object that is attached to a display surface and an object for visual effect that is provided on a viewing position side with respect to the viewing object and shields at least a portion of the viewing object. The object for visual effect is arranged so as to shield the boundary between the viewing object and the display surface.

Display set and display method

According to an embodiment of the present invention, an image processing apparatus capable of properly controlling sharpness of an output image and outputting the image is provided. More specifically, the image processing apparatus comprises: a setting unit configured to set an image processing condition for performing image processing to image data of an input photographic image based on an output characteristic of an output apparatus that influences sharpness of an image output from the output apparatus; an obtaining unit configured to obtain information equivalent to a distance from a focal plane in the photographic image; and an image processing unit configured to perform image processing to the image data based on the information obtained by the obtaining unit and the image processing condition set by the setting unit.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, with image processing based on image processing condition and information equivalent to distance from focal plane

Image data of a photographic image is inputted, and based on information related to a distance from a focal plane when capture is performed, the sharpness of an image that the inputted image data represents is controlled. Image data resulting from the sharpness control being performed is outputted. In the sharpness control, the sharpness control amount is set in accordance with the luminance of a peripheral region that neighbors an in-focus region that is determined to be in-focus in the image.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method and storage medium for storing program

A resolution conversion of image data of a photographic image is performed, and based on information related to a distance from a focal plane in the photographic image and the resolution conversion, processing to control the sharpness of an image that the image data resulting from the resolution conversion represents is performed.

An apparatus includes an extraction unit to extract a feature point in a first image. A determination unit determines a motion vector that corresponds to the feature point extracted from the first image by the extraction unit and a corresponding point that is located in a second image and that has a highest degree of similarity between image data for the feature point and image data for the corresponding point, among candidates of the corresponding point in the second image. A correction unit corrects a first motion vector determined by the determination unit by employing a second motion vector determined by the determination unit. The correction unit employs the second motion vector, in accordance with both of a first degree of similarity between the feature point and the corresponding point, and a second degree of similarity between the feature point and another candidate among the candidates.
