Patent ID: 8503828

Claim:
An image processing device comprising: an upsampling section configured to perform upsampling processing adjusting an input image of a first resolution to a number of pixels of an image of a second resolution higher than said first resolution; a motion compensated image generating section configured to generate a motion compensated image by correction processing adjusting a reference image having said second resolution to a subject position of an upsampled image obtained by said upsampling processing using difference information between said upsampled image and said reference image; a blend processing section configured to compare said upsampled image and said motion compensated image with each other in image region units, set a blend ratio of the reference image higher in a region of a higher degree of coincidence of region unit pixel values, and generate a blended image by blending said upsampled image and said reference image with each other; and an output image generating section configured to generate difference information between said blended image and said input image, and generate a high-resolution image having the second resolution by synthesizing said blended image and said difference information, wherein said output image generating section has a constitution in which filtering processing necessary to generate said difference information is performed twice or less.
