IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM
First Claim
1. An image processing apparatus, comprising:
- a receiving unit for receiving first video data containing a plurality of frames and second video data having a resolution higher than the frames contained in the first video data;
a motion prediction unit for detecting a motion vector between the frames contained in the first video data received by the receiving unit; and
an image generation unit for, based on the second video data received by the receiving unit and the motion vector detected by the motion prediction unit, performing motion compensation on a frame positioned between a predetermined frame contained in the first video data received by the receiving unit and a frame contained in the second video data, and generating motion compensated image data corresponding to the predetermined frame based on the motion compensated frame and the motion vector detected by the motion prediction unit.

Abstract
There is provided an image processing apparatus including an acquiring unit for acquiring moving image data containing a plurality of successive frames, and one or a plurality of image data corresponding to the frames and having a spatial resolution higher than the frames; a motion prediction unit for detecting a motion vector between the frames using the moving image data; and an image generation unit for generating motion compensated image data corresponding to a predetermined frame based on the image data and the motion vector. The image generation unit generates the motion compensated image data being positioned between the predetermined frame and a frame corresponding to the image data and corresponding to the frame, and generates motion compensated image data corresponding to the predetermined frame based on the motion compensated image data and the motion vector.

9. An image processing method, comprising the steps of:
-
receiving first video data containing a plurality of frames and second video data having a resolution higher than the frames contained in the first video data; detecting a motion vector between the frames contained in the first video data received in the receiving step; and performing, based on the second video data received in the receiving step and the motion vector detected in the motion prediction step, motion compensation on a frame positioned between a predetermined frame contained in the first video data received in the receiving step and a frame contained in the second video data, and generating motion compensated image data corresponding to the predetermined frame based on the motion compensated frame and the motion vector detected in the motion prediction step.
