Image processing apparatus and image processing method

Abstract

The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus and an image processing method that make it possible to accurately reproduce a blur degree of an optical lens. A ray generation section generates rays to be incident to a virtual lens having a synthetic aperture configured from a plurality of image pickup sections that pick up images of a plurality of visual points from a real space point in a real space. A luminance allocation section allocates a luminance to rays remaining as a result of a collision decision for deciding whether or not the rays collide with an object before the rays are incident to the virtual lens. The present technology can be applied to a light field technology for reconstructing, for example, images picked up using various optical lenses from images of a plurality of visual points.
