Image processing apparatus and control method thereof

摘要

A brightness control unit includes: a “feedback brightness control unit” that calculates a first gain from a corrected image data and multiplies the first gain by image data prior to correct; and a “feedforward brightness control unit” which, when a scene change is detected, calculates a second gain on the basis of a difference between the first gain which is calculated from the corrected image data and the first gain which has been multiplied by the pre-correction image data of the corrected image data in order to correct the difference, and multiplies the second gain by the corrected image data.

主权项

1. An image processing apparatus that inputs video image data of a plurality of frames and displays a plurality of images comprising a plurality of frames based on the video image data on a display unit, the image processing apparatus comprising:
a correction unit that corrects image data for each frame of the plurality of frames with a correction amount corresponding to a value of the image data, and that outputs corrected image data for each frame; a brightness control unit that controls an overall brightness of image data for each frame of the plurality of frames; and a detection unit that detects a scene change between one of the images and the next image in the plurality of images comprising the plurality of frames, wherein the brightness control unit includes: (a) a first brightness control unit that calculates a first gain from the corrected image data of a frame and multiplies the first gain by image data of a following frame prior to input into the correction unit; and (b) a second brightness control unit which, when a scene change is detected by the detection unit, calculates a second gain on the basis of a difference between (i) the first gain which is calculated from the corrected image data of a current frame and (ii) the first gain which has been calculated from the corrected image data of a preceding frame, and multiplies the second gain by the corrected image data of the current frame, and which, when a scene change is not detected by the detection unit, multiplies a gain of 1 by the corrected image data of the current frame or bypasses the multiplication of the second gain.
