Abstract
An image processing device includes: one or more detectors that respectively receive reference images, and each detect, for each pixel in the reference image, a displacement relative to a base image; one or more generators that respectively receive the reference images, and each generate an aligned image by, for each pixel in the reference image, moving the pixel according to the displacement for the pixel and assigning a grayscale value of the pixel to a pixel position closest to the moved pixel; and a combiner that takes each pixel in the base image as a pixel of interest and calculates a grayscale value of a pixel at the same position as the pixel of interest in a combined image by weighting and summing grayscale values of the pixel of interest and pixels at the same position as the pixel of interest in the aligned images.
