Abstract
The image processing apparatus comprises, an image acquisition unit configured to acquire, as an image, a result of imaging, on an image sensor unit, light traveling from an object via an opening of a stop, a control unit configured to control a shape of the opening based on a function which defines a temporal change of the shape of the opening when the image acquisition unit acquires the image, and a detection unit configured to detect a blur state in the image based on the function.
Claims14
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- an image acquisition unit configured to acquire, as an image, a result of imaging, on an image sensor unit, light traveling from an object via an opening of a stop;
- a control unit configured to control a shape of the opening based on a function which defines a temporal change of the shape of the opening when said image acquisition unit acquires the image;
- and
- a detection unit configured to detect a blur state in the image based on the function.
An image processing method, by using a computer to perform the steps of:
- an acquisition step of acquiring, as an image, a result of imaging, on an image sensor unit, light traveling from an object via an opening of a stop;
- a control step of controlling a shape of the opening based on a function which defines a temporal change of the shape of the opening when acquiring the image;
- and
- a detection step of detecting a blur state in the image based on the function.
