Abstract
[Object] It is desirable to provide a technology capable of further appropriately adjusting the luminance of the endoscopic image. [Solution] Provided is an image processing device including: an area extraction unit configured to extract, as an extraction area, an area corresponding to the size of an insertion unit from an endoscopic image based on imaging by an image sensor; and an exposure control unit configured to perform exposure control on a basis of an output value of the image sensor in the extraction area.

An image processing device comprising:
- an area extraction unit configured to extract, as an extraction area, an area corresponding to the size of an insertion unit from an endoscopic image based on imaging by an image sensor;
- and
- an exposure control unit configured to perform exposure control on a basis of an output value of the image sensor in the extraction area.
An image processing device comprising:
- extracting, as an extraction area, an area corresponding to the size of an insertion unit from an endoscopic image based on imaging by an image sensor;
- and
- performing exposure control by a processor on a basis of an output value of the image sensor in the extraction area.
A program for causing a computer to function as an image processing device comprising:
- an area extraction unit configured to extract, as an extraction area, an area corresponding to the size of an insertion unit from an endoscopic image based on imaging by an image sensor;
- and
- an exposure control unit configured to perform exposure control on a basis of an output value of the image sensor in the extraction area.
An image processing system comprising:
- a light source unit configured to emit light;
- an image sensor configured to capture an endoscopic image by receiving reflected light of the light emitted by the light source unit;
- and
- an image processing device including
- an area extraction unit configured to extract, as an extraction area, an area corresponding to the size of an insertion unit from the endoscopic image, and
- an exposure control unit configured to perform exposure control on a basis of an output value of the image sensor in the extraction area.
