Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a three-dimensional space information storage unit, a projection unit, an operation acquisition unit, a reference guide rail decision unit, and a motion vector calculation unit. The projection unit projects and draws a cross-sectional plane onto a projection plane on the basis of information on a position of the cross-sectional plane stored by the three-dimensional space information storage unit. The reference guide rail decision unit decides a reference guide rail on the basis of information on a position of a slide operation acquired by the operation acquisition unit. The motion vector calculation unit calculates a two-dimensional motion vector parallel to the reference guide rail on the basis of a direction of the slide operation and an amount of movement, calculates a three-dimensional motion vector corresponding to the two-dimensional motion vector, and changes the position of the cross-sectional plane in accordance with the calculated three-dimensional motion vector.
