Abstract
In the present invention, there is provided an image processing apparatus including: a detecting section configured to detect a motion vector from an input image signal acting as the image signal for each of chronologically input pixels; a determining section configured to determine whether the input image signal is cleared; and an interpolating section configured such that if the input image signal is not found cleared, then the interpolating section interpolates and outputs an input image signal intermediate signal interposed at a predetermined point in time between the uncleared input image signal and a preceding input image signal that precedes the uncleared input signal, in accordance with the motion vector; and if the input image signal is found cleared, then the interpolating section allows the input image signal to be output unchanged as the input image signal intermediate signal.
