Image processing apparatus and method for preventing degradation of image quality when bit format of image is converted

摘要

Provided is an image processing apparatus and method for preventing degradation of image quality occurring when a bit-format of an image is converted. When a raw image is converted to an image having specific color resolution, the image to be converted can maintain an image close to the raw image by obtaining errors between pixels of the raw image and the image to be converted and minimizing the errors between the raw image and the image to be converted using an error diffusion scheme.
