Claim Text:
1. An image processing apparatus comprising: a plurality of coordinate computation units configured to perform coordinate computations through different geometric deformations on respective coordinates in an image, thus each calculating converted coordinates and moving vectors; a geometric deformation amount control unit configured to output different geometric deformation parameters for corresponding geometric deformations to respective ones of said plurality of coordinate computation units; a vector combining unit configured to combine the moving vectors calculated by said plurality of coordinate computation units, thus generating combined moving vectors; and a transformation unit configured to, based on the combined moving vectors, transform coordinates in an image to be outputted into coordinates in an inputted image, wherein said plurality of coordinate computation units perform the coordinate computations based on an inputted coordinates and the geometric deformation parameters inputted from said geometric deformation amount control unit, said plurality of coordinate computation units are connected in series, and the converted coordinates outputted from the coordinate computation units in preceding stages are inputted as the inputted coordinates to the second and subsequent coordinate computation units among said plurality of coordinate computation units.
