Patent ID: 8405768

Claim:
A moving image processing apparatus configured to generate a plurality of output frames from one input frame, the apparatus comprising: an input unit configured to input a first input frame and a second input frame following the first input frame; a determination unit configured to determine a first distribution ratio for generating at least a first output frame and a second output frame from the first input frame, and to determine a second distribution ratio for generating at least a third output frame and a fourth output frame from the second input frame according to a motion of an image in the second input frame, wherein the determination unit sets an allowable range of the second distribution ratio based on a difference between the first and the second input frames and the first distribution ratio, and wherein the determination unit determines the second distribution ratio according to a motion of an image in the second input frame so that the second distribution ratio is within the set allowable range; and a generation unit configured to generate the first output frame and the second output frame from the first input frame based on the first distribution ratio, and to generate the third output frame and the fourth output frame from the second input frame based on the second distribution ratio.
