Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes: a relative coordinate acquisition part acquiring a corresponding position on an input image with respect to a predetermined pixel on an output image; a first storage part storing position information of the corresponding position; a reading control part causing pixel values of input pixels on the input image to be sequentially read; an organization part organizing a set of grid points formed of input pixels among input pixels read by the reading control part; a judgment part judging, based on the position information, whether or not pixel values of pixels in the vicinity of the corresponding position used in calculating a pixel value of the predetermined pixel have been read; a local memory storing, in a case where judgment is made that pixels in the vicinity of the corresponding position have been read, pixel values of pixels forming the set of grid points as pixel values of surrounding pixels regarding the predetermined pixel; and a pixel value calculation part calculating a pixel value of the predetermined pixel by interpolation using the pixel values of the surrounding pixels.
