Patent ID: 7952610

Claim:
An information processing apparatus comprising: calculation means for performing a calculation such that a pixel value of a pixel in a first area is compared with a pixel value of a pixel in a second area, the first area being located at a substantial center of a captured image obtained by taking an image of a display which is to be evaluated and which is displaying an image, the first area having a size having a particular relationship with the size of a pixel of the display under evaluation on the captured image, the second area being located at a position different from the position of the first area on the captured image and having the same size, as that of the first area, whereby the size of the image of the pixel of the display under evaluation on the captured image, and the angle of the first area with respect to the image of the pixel of the display under evaluation on the captured image are determined from a result of the comparison; and conversion means for converting data of the captured image of the display under evaluation into data of each pixel of the display under evaluation, based on the size of the image of the pixel and the angle of the first area.
