Claim Text:
1. An image processing apparatus, comprising circuitry configured to function as: a memory unit configured to store an input image and read a part or all of the input image as a first image and a second image; an acquiring unit configured to acquire an up-conversion line that is a line of pixels used for up conversion from the first and second images; an up-converting unit configured to perform up conversion using pixels of the up-conversion line, and generate a first up-converted image obtained by up converting the first image and a second up-converted image obtained by up converting the second image; and a generating unit configured to write the first up-converted image in a first memory block, write the second up-converted image in a second memory block, read pixels of the first up-converted image written in the first memory block in a certain order decided according to a scan method of a display device configured to display an output image obtained by up converting the input image, read pixels of the second up-converted image written in the second memory block in the certain order, and generate the output image according to the scan method of the display device, wherein, when the input image is a three dimensional (3D) image, wherein, when the input image is a two dimensional (2D) image, and the scan method of the display device is a normal cross-in-square method in which scanning is performed in a direction from an upper left to a lower right in each of four small display screens obtained by dividing a display screen of the display device in half in a horizontal direction and a vertical direction,
