Abstract
An image processing apparatus that transforms distortion of an image projected by a projection apparatus includes an obtaining unit and a transformation unit. The obtaining unit is configured to obtain a captured image acquired by capturing a projected image including a pattern image projected by the projection apparatus. The pattern image contains at least three objects having different appearances from one area to another. The transformation unit is configured to specify a local area in the captured image and transform the local area based on a positional relationship among the at least three objects in the local area. The transformation unit transforms the local area by using a positional relationship between an object of a first appearance and an object of a second appearance in the local area and a positional relationship between the object of the first appearance and an object of a third appearance in the local area.
