Device and method for enhancing images

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a an image processing device for providing a plurality of enhanced partial images which together represent an enhanced three-dimensional, 3D, image, wherein each enhanced partial image is a two-dimensional, 2D, image associated with one of a plurality of focal planes. The image processing device includes processing circuitry configured to receive or generate a plurality of initial partial images, which together form an initial 3D image, wherein each initial partial image is a 2D image associated with one of the plurality of focal planes; and to generate, from each of the initial partial images, an enhanced partial image by generating a blurred version of the initial partial image; and blending the initial partial image with the blurred version of the initial partial image.
