Abstract
An image processing device is equipped with an image input unit, an arithmetic operation unit, and an a value updating unit. The image input unit accepts a first input image and a second input image that a virtual image has been superimposed on the first input image at a first transmittance. The arithmetic operation unit calculates, by comparison between results of operations performed on a composite image obtained by adding values that the first input image and the second input image have been respectively multiplied by a second transmittance and a value that the second transmittance has been subtracted from 1 and on the first input image, a visibility value at the second transmittance. The α value updating unit updates the second transmittance with a comparison between the visibility value and a target value. The arithmetic operation unit uses the updated second transmittance to recalculated the visibility value.
