Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to detect a positional shift amount of each of a plurality of images; select a composite target image from the plurality of images based on the detected positional shift amount; and obtain a composite image based on the positional shift amount and the selected composite target image.
Claims25
An image processing apparatus, comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to
- set one of a plurality of images as a reference image and set remaining images of the plurality of images as comparative images;
- detect a pixel shift amount between the reference image and each of the comparative images;
- select a composite target image from among the plurality of images based on each of the detected pixel shift amounts;
- obtain a composite image based on the selected composite target image;
- and
- move the composite target image relative to the reference image based on the pixel shift amounts to have the composite image overlay the reference image.
A method of processing an image, the method comprising:
- setting one of a plurality of images as a reference image and setting remaining images of the plurality of images as comparative images;
- detecting a pixel shift amount between the reference image and each of the comparative images;
- selecting a composite target image from among the plurality of images based on each of the detected pixel shift amounts;
- obtaining a composite image based on the selected composite target image;
- and
- moving the composite target image relative to the reference image based on the pixel shift amounts to have the composite image overlay the reference image.
A non-transitory recording medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a method of processing an image, the method comprising:
- setting one of a plurality of images as a reference image and setting remaining images of the plurality of images as comparative images;
- detecting a pixel shift amount between the reference image and each of the comparative images;
- selecting a composite target image from among the plurality of images based on each of the detected pixel shift amounts;
- obtaining a composite image based on the selected composite target image;
- and
- moving the composite target image relative to the reference image based on the pixel shift amounts to have the composite image overlay the reference image.
A system, comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to
- set one of a plurality of images as a reference image and set remaining images of the plurality of images as comparative images;
- detect a pixel shift amount between the reference image and each of the comparative images;
- select a composite target image from among the plurality of images based on each of the detected pixel shift amounts;
- obtain a composite image based on the selected composite target image;
- and
- move the composite target image relative to the reference image based on the pixel shift amounts to have the composite image overlay the reference image.
