Abstract
An image processing device includes: a communication interface configured to receive an original image from a camera; a processor configured to determine a mask area of the original image, extract a switched point among a series of pixels in the mask area, and switch, on the basis of the switched point, a first pixel value of a first pixel set and a second pixel value of a second pixel set and generate a masked image; and a memory storing the masked image and information about the switched point, wherein the switched point is one or more, and the series of pixels sequentially include the first pixel set and the second pixel set.

An image processing device comprising:
- a communication interface configured to receive an original image from a camera;
- a processor configured to determine a mask area of the original image, extract a switched point among a series of pixels in the mask area, and switch, on the basis of the switched point, a first pixel value of a first pixel set and a second pixel value of a second pixel set and generate a masked image;
- and
- a memory storing the masked image and information about the switched point,
- wherein the switched point is one or more, and
- the series of pixels sequentially comprise the first pixel set and the second pixel set.
An image processing device comprising:
- a communication interface configured to transmit an image request to a video recorder and receive a masked image and personal key information from the video recorder;
- a processor configured to extract a switched point from the personal key information, extract a mask area from the masked image, extract a series of pixels that sequentially include a first pixel set and a second pixel set from the mask area, and switch a first pixel value of the first pixel set and a second pixel value of the second pixel set on the basis of the switched point to generate a restored image;
- and
- a display configured to display the masked image or display the restored image on a screen.
An image processing method, the image processing method comprising:
- receiving, via a communication interface, an original image from a camera;
- determining, by using a processor, a mask area of the original image;
- extracting, by using the processor, a switched point among a series of pixels in the mask area;
- generating, by using the processor, a masked image by switching a first pixel value of the first pixel set and a second pixel value of the second pixel set on the basis of the switched point;
- and
- transmitting, by using the communication interface, the masked image to a user terminal,
- wherein the series of pixels sequentially comprise the first pixel set and the second pixel set.
