IMAGE PROCESSOR, IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technology of realizing an image with high resolution by imaging a light source image resulting from imaging a light source and estimating light source information without the need for mount of an additional imaging apparatus. SOLUTION: A wide angle image imaging section 101 uses an imaging apparatus 1001 capable of imaging a wide angle image and automatically and consecutively images an object. An imaging apparatus information acquisition section 102 acquires imaging apparatus information representing a state of the imaging apparatus 1001 in its imaging state. A light source information estimate section 103 uses an imaged wide angle image and the acquired imaging apparatus information to estimate the light source information including the position, the color and the illuminance of the light source, and an image high resolution section 104 uses the estimated light source information to bring the imaged wide angle image to have a high resolution.
