Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes an intermediate image generating unit configured to input an image which has been shot with differing exposure times set by region, generates a plurality of exposure pattern images corresponding to differing exposure times based on the input image, and generates a plurality of timing images which are difference images of the plurality of exposure pattern images; and a distortion correction processing unit configured to generate a corrected image equivalent to an exposure processing image at a predetermined exposure time by synthesizing processing of the plurality of timing images.
Claims13
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- an intermediate image generating unit configured to
- input an image which has been shot with differing exposure times set by region,
- generate a plurality of exposure pattern images corresponding to differing exposure times based on said input image, and
- generate a plurality of timing images which are difference images of said plurality of exposure pattern images;
- and
- a distortion correction processing unit configured to generate a corrected image equivalent to an exposure processing image at a predetermined exposure time by synthesizing processing of said plurality of timing images.
An image processing method executed by an image processing apparatus, said method comprising:
- performing, by an intermediate image generating unit,
- inputting of an image which has been shot with differing exposure times set by region,
- generating of a plurality of exposure pattern images corresponding to differing exposure time based on the input image, and
- generating of a plurality of timing images which are difference images of said plurality of exposure pattern images;
- and
- generating, by a distortion correction processing unit, a corrected image equivalent to an exposure processing image at a predetermined exposure time by synthesizing processing of said plurality of timing images.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions to execute image processing with an image processing apparatus, the instructions comprising:
- causing an intermediate image generating unit to
- input an image which has been shot with differing exposure times set by region,
- generate a plurality of exposure pattern images corresponding to differing exposure time based on the input image, and
- generate a plurality of timing images which are difference images of said plurality of exposure pattern images;
- and
- causing a distortion correction processing unit to generate a corrected image equivalent to an exposure processing image at a predetermined exposure time by synthesizing processing of said plurality of timing images.
