Abstract

An image-processing device is configured to detect a motion region within an input image; generate an intermediate image from an N-th frame and an (N+1)-th frame; perform processing of reducing a high-frequency component of spatial frequency on the intermediate image; and output an image of which a frame rate is increased by insertion of the intermediate image having undergone the processing between the N-th frame and the (N+1)-th frame. When a target position at which a pixel value of the intermediate image is to be calculated lies within the motion region, a pixel value of the intermediate image at the target position is calculated using a pixel value of the N-th frame and a pixel value of the (N+1)-th frame at a position in the vicinity of the target position and outside the motion region.
