Abstract:
1. An image processing apparatus configured to receive moving image data, comprising: a defect detecting unit configured to detect defects in received moving image data; a priority determining unit configured to determine a priority of a first defect and a priority of a second defect according to a distance from center of a frame of the moving image data to each of positions of the first and second defects in the frame when the first and second defects are detected from the frame of the moving image data; and an interpolation processing unit configured to perform interpolation of the first and second defects detected from the frame of the moving image data such that the first defect is interpolated and the second defect is not interpolated when the interpolation of the first defect which has the higher priority than the second defect can be completed within a time limit but the interpolation of both of the first and second defects cannot be completed within the time limit.
