Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes: an image processing section that receives input images of a plurality of frames, divides an image of each input frame into a plurality of blocks for each image of the frame, and generates an image corresponding to each frame by performing predetermined image processing on each division block; and an overlap width control section that separately saves overlap width data to be used in each of a plurality of image processing operations by the image processing section for generating the image corresponding to each frame for each piece of the overlap width data corresponding to each image processing operation when image data included in an overlap width area in which block areas overlap within the image of each frame is saved as overlap width data, and switches the overlap width data to be used when the image processing section performs each image processing operation.
