Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes: a unit that detects a motion vector from a first video image and a second video image; a unit that detects a disparity vector between a frame of the first video image and a frame of the second video image; a unit that, when there exists a non-detection position at which no motion vector is detected in a frame of one video image, performs correction by detecting a corresponding position included in a frame of the other video image that corresponds to the non-detection position using the disparity vector, and setting a motion vector of the frame of the other video image at the corresponding position, to the non-detection position; and a unit that generates respective interpolation frames of the first video image and the second video image using the motion vector after correction.
