Abstract

An image processing apparatus includes processing circuitry to: detect a region of a face of a person included in a moving image signal input at a certain frame rate as a specific region; set a region other than the specific region as a processing region; apply processing to the processing region to output an output image signal having information volume less than information volume of the input moving image signal; and encode the output image signal. The processing applied to the processing region includes at least one of low-pass filtering to selectively filter a spatial frequency of the processing region, contrast reduction processing to selectively reduce contrast of the processing region, and frame rate reduction processing to selectively reduce the frame rate of the processing region.
