Image processing apparatus and control method thereof

摘要

An image processing apparatus and a control method thereof are provided. The an image processing apparatus includes: a depth map estimating unit which estimates a depth map of a stereoscopic image; a region setup unit which sets up a region in the stereoscopic image; and a 3D effect adjusting unit which determines a difference in a depth level between the setup region and a surrounding region other than the setup region based on the estimated depth map, and adjusts a 3D effect of the stereoscopic image based on the determined difference in the depth level.

主权项

1. An image processing apparatus comprising at least one processor or integrated circuit configured to function as:
a depth map estimating unit which estimates a depth map of a stereoscopic image; a region setup unit which sets up a setup region and a surrounding region in the stereoscopic image; and a 3D effect adjusting unit which calculates, based on the estimated depth map, a difference in a depth level between the setup region and the surrounding region, and adjusts a depth of the stereoscopic image based on the determined difference in the depth level, wherein the surrounding region is a remainder of the stereoscopic image excluding the setup region.
