Image processing device, image processing method, and information recording medium
First Claim
1. An image processing device comprising:
- original image data obtaining means for obtaining original image data representing an original image;
light-and-shade pattern data obtaining means for obtaining light-and-shade pattern data representing the light-and-shade pattern to be added to said original image and constructed by assigning a palette number to each image region obtained by dividing said original image;
palette data generating means for generating a plurality of palette data each constructed by assigning color information to each palette number, said color information having different brightness from each other, said plurality of palette data being different from each other;
translucent blending means for translucently blending, in sequence, a plurality of light-and-shade images each based on said light-and-shade pattern data and one of the palette data generated by said palette data generating means, into said original image based on said original image data; and
image displaying means for sequentially displaying images obtained by the translucent synthesis.

Abstract
In order to represent, as a video, changes in the light-and-shade patterns of an image with a reduced demand for storage capacity and a relatively small amount of preparation, light-and-shade pattern data representing the light-and-shade pattern to be added to an original image and constructed by assigning a palette number to each image region obtained by dividing the original image is prepared. A plurality of palette data constructed by assigning color information having brightness difference to each palette number are generated, the plurality of palette data being different from each other. A plurality of light-and-shade images each based on the light-and-shade pattern data and one of the palette data generated at the palette data generating step are translucently blended, in sequence, into the original image.
