Abstract
An image processing apparatus is provided with: a partial image data generator for generating a plurality of partial image data pertaining to a plurality of partial images of an object respectively, one partial image being partially overlapped another partial image in a boundary portion; a boundary image data generator for generating boundary image data pertaining to the boundary portion based on image data pertaining to the respective overlapped portions; and an image synthesizer for synthesizing the plurality of partial image data by way of the generated boundary image data to generate image data pertaining to a single image of the object.
Claims17
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a partial image data generator which generates a plurality of partial image data pertaining to a plurality of partial images of an object respectively, one partial image being partially overlapped another partial image in a boundary portion;
- a boundary image data generator which generates boundary image data pertaining to the boundary portion based on image data pertaining to the respective overlapped portions;
- and
- an image synthesizer which synthesizes the plurality of partial image data by way of the generated boundary image data to generate image data pertaining to a single image of the object.
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a partial image data generator which generates a plurality of partial image data pertaining to a plurality of partial images of an object respectively, one partial image being partially overlapped another partial image in a boundary portion;
- and
- an image synthesizer which executes density correction of image data pertaining to the respective overlapped portions, and synthesizes the plurality of corrected partial image data to generate image data pertaining to a single image of the object.
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of image pickup devices which generate a plurality of partial image data pertaining to a plurality of partial light images of an object respectively, each image pickup device including an arrangement of a number of photoelectric conversion elements respectively attached with three primary color filters in a predetermined positional relationship;
- an image data interpolator which performs interpolation of partial image data of each primary color generated by each image pickup device;
- and
- an image synthesizer which synthesizes the plurality of interpolated partial image data to generate image data pertaining to a single image of the object.
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of image pickup devices which generate a plurality of partial image data pertaining to a plurality of partial light images of an object respectively, each image pickup device including a number of photoelectric conversion elements;
- a memory which stores correction data for correcting a variation in the photoelectric conversion elements of each image pickup device;
- an image data corrector which corrects partial image data generated by each image pickup device based on correction data stored in the memory;
- and
- an image synthesizer which synthesizes the plurality of corrected partial image data to generate image data pertaining to a single image of the object.
