Abstract
Provided is an image processing apparatus that includes a long-time exposure distance image generation unit that captures an image with long-time exposure, calculates a parallax from a first long-time exposure image and a second long-time exposure image from a first long-time exposure camera and a second long-time exposure camera disposed at a predetermined interval, and generates a long-time exposure distance image. The image processing apparatus further includes a short-time exposure distance image generation unit that captures an image with short-time exposure, calculates a parallax from a first short-time exposure image and a second short-time exposure image from a first short-time exposure camera and a second short-time exposure camera disposed at a predetermined interval, and generates a short-time exposure distance image, and a distance image generation unit that combines the long-time exposure distance image with the short-time exposure distance image to generate a distance image.
