Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An image processing apparatus according to the present invention, comprises: a frame rate conversion unit that generates an interpolated frame image which interpolates an input frame image constituting an input video, and outputs the input frame image and the interpolated frame image alternately; and an HDR video generation unit that performs processing to enhance gradation of an image in a low brightness area, for the input frame image which is output from the frame rate conversion unit, and performs processing to enhance gradation of an image in a high brightness area, for the interpolated frame image.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An image processing apparatus, comprising: a frame rate conversion processor that generates an interpolated frame image which interpolates an input frame image constituting an input video, and outputs the input frame image and the interpolated frame image alternately; and a high dynamic range (HDR) processor that performs processing to increase the brightness of the input frame image which is output from the frame rate conversion processor by converting gr…
