Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a two-dimensional image storage unit configured to store a plurality of two-dimensional image data captured by photographing an identical imaging target object under different exposure conditions; a distance image storage unit configured to store distance image data including a pixel array of a known relationship to a pixel array of the two-dimensional image data; a pixel extraction unit configured to extract, among pixels in each of the two-dimensional image data, a first pixel at which a difference in brightness between identical pixels is less than a predetermined value; and a distance image adjusting unit configured to specify a second pixel of the distance image data at a position corresponding to the first pixel in the pixel array, and to set the second pixel as a non-imaging pixel in the distance image data.
