Abstract
An image processing device is provided with an optical flow calculation circuit () for calculating a plurality of optical flows between a first image and a second image captured before the first image, a vector decomposition circuit () for decomposing each of the optical flows into a vanishing point direction vector and an orthogonal vector, a vibration blur amount calculation circuit () for calculating the aggregate values of horizontal and vertical components of the orthogonal vector and calculating the amount of vibration blur of the first image based on the aggregate values, an optical flow starting point correction circuit () for correcting the calculated optical flows by the amount of vibration blur, and a vanishing point calculation circuit () for calculating a vanishing point of the first image based on the corrected optical flows.
