Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an image processing apparatus and an image processing method which make it possible to generate an image using texture images and depth images of two viewpoints that represent a three-dimensional structure of a greater number of regions. A drawing section generates a texture image of a predetermined viewpoint using a texture image obtained by perspectively projecting, to a perspective projection face perpendicular to a sight line direction heading from each of two viewpoints which are opposed to each other across a center of a polygon, toward the center of the polygon, a rear face of the polygon and a depth image corresponding to the texture image of each of the viewpoints. The present disclosure can be applied, for example, to a display apparatus and the like.
