First Claim
Patent Images
1. An image processing apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors configured to;
modify depth information representing depths in individual pixels of an image in accordance with content included in the image, thereby generating modified depth information;
perform a stereoscopic effect enhancement process of enhancing a stereoscopic effect of the image by using the modified depth information; and
classify each of the individual pixels of the image into one of a plurality of classes in accordance with a pattern of pixel values of one or more sets of the individual pixels and the modified depth information.
