1. An image processing device comprising:
- an image acquisition unit configured to acquire a first image and a second image with a parallax, which are taken as a stereoscopic image;
a parallax calculation unit configured to calculate a parallax indicating a shift amount of a corresponding pixel of the second image with respect to each pixel of the first image acquired by the image acquisition unit;
an image processing coefficient decision unit configured to decide an image processing coefficient to perform edge emphasis or edge correction with respect to every image processing target pixel of the first image and the second image acquired by the image acquisition unit, and decide the image processing coefficient for the target pixel based on the parallax calculated by the parallax calculation unit; and
an image processing unit configured to perform image processing using the image processing coefficient decided by the image processing coefficient decision unit for the first image and the second image acquired by the image acquisition unit.

Abstract
An image processing method includes: acquiring a first image and second image with a parallax, calculating a parallax indicating a shift amount of a corresponding pixel of the second image with respect to each pixel of the first image, deciding an image processing coefficient to perform edge emphasis or edge correction based on the parallax with respect to every image processing target pixel of the first image and the second image, and performing image processing on the first image and the second image using the image processing coefficient.
