IMAGE PICKING-UP PROCESSING DEVICE, IMAGE PICKING-UP DEVICE, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM

摘要

It is an object to provide an image processing device and an image processing method that are configured not to lower the amount of light incident on each camera and to generate a dynamic image with a high resolution at a high frame rate. An image picking-up processing device is comprised of a separation unit that separates visible light into at least first and second color components; a first image picking-up unit which picks up dynamic images of the first color component and carries out the exposure for a first electric charge accumulation period and the picking-up of each dynamic image with a first space resolution and with a first time resolution, a second image picking-up unit which picks up dynamic images of the second color component and carries out the exposure for a second electric charge accumulation period that is longer than the first electric charge accumulation period and the picking-up of each dynamic image with a second space resolution that is higher than the first space resolution and with a second time resolution that is lower than the first time resolution; a control unit that controls image picking-up conditions of the first and second image picking-up units; and a processing unit that generates a dynamic image of the second color component in which a time-space resolution is enhanced based on information of each dynamic image of the first and second color components.
