Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a command analyzing unit obtaining color information of each endpoint of an object by analyzing a drawing command, a draw processing unit obtaining the color information of successive scanned points inside the object through incremental interpolation of the color information, thereby successively producing the color information for an entirety of the object, and an image processing unit processing the color information outputted by the draw processing unit.
Claims24
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a command analyzing unit obtaining color information of each endpoint of an object by analyzing a drawing command;
- a draw processing unit obtaining the color information of successive scanned points inside the object through incremental interpolation of the color information, thereby successively producing the color information for an entirety of the object;
- and
- an image processing unit processing the color information outputted by the draw processing unit,
- wherein the draw processing unit further includes a color information interpolating unit controlling change of color by interpolating color in horizontal and vertical directions in accordance with a mesh, which is shaped as a square surrounding the object and is divided into minimal color lengths in vertical and horizontal directions.
An image processing method comprising the steps of:
- a) obtaining color information of each endpoint of an object by analyzing a drawing command;
- b) obtaining the color information of successive scanned points inside the object through incremental interpolation of the color information, thereby successively producing the color information for an entirety of the object;
- and
- c) processing the color information outputted in step b),
- wherein step b) further includes a step of:
- controlling change of color by interpolating color in horizontal and vertical directions in accordance with a mesh, which is shaped as a square surrounding the object and is divided into minimal color lengths in vertical and horizontal directions.
An image processing program comprising the functions of:
- a) obtaining color information of each endpoint of an object by analyzing a drawing command;
- b) obtaining the color information of successive scanned points inside the object through incremental interpolation of the color information, thereby successively producing the color information for an entirety of the object;
- and
- c) processing the color information outputted in function b),
- wherein function b) further includes a function of:
- controlling change of color by interpolating color in horizontal and vertical directions in accordance with a mesh, which is shaped as a square surrounding the object and is divided into minimal color lengths in vertical and horizontal directions.
