Image processing apparatus and method for adjusting intensity of a reflective property of an object in a displayed image

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an image processing apparatus and method capable of reproducing texture as if objects are actually present. An operation environment information analysis unit acquires and analyzes user's operation environment information for an image while the image is being displayed. The operation environment information analysis unit supplies the analyzed operation environment information as operation environment parameters to a property control unit. The property control unit causes an image combination unit to conduct texture control depending on visual environment parameters or operation environment parameters, thereby optimizing the texture control. The present disclosure is applicable to image processing apparatuses, for example.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
