Claim One:
1. An image processing apparatus that generates a joined image by joining a plurality of textures based on a plurality of images, the image processing apparatus comprising: a motion vector derivation unit that sequentially derives motion vectors between images of the plurality of images; a correction unit that calculates cumulative errors corresponding to misalignment between a position of a subject in a first image and a position of the subject in a second image, and corrects the motion vectors between images included in a target section from the first image to the second image based on the cumulative errors and a number of frames included in the target section, wherein the first image includes the subject and wherein the second image includes the subject and is captured after the subject is out of a field of view; and a texture writing unit that writes, into a frame memory, the plurality of textures that form the joined image, based on the motion vectors corrected by the correction unit.
