Patent number: 8189953Abstract: An image processing apparatus is disclosed. The image processing apparatus includes a thinning-out section generating thinned-out line data of thinned-out data constituted by a plurality of the thinned-out line data, the thinned-out data being obtained by thinning out wide-field image data with distortion captured using a wide-angle lens, and sequentially outputting the thinned-out line data at every predetermined timing, a switching section performing switching from an output of the wide-field image data to an output of the thinned-out line data in response to the predetermined timing, and a buffer temporarily storing the wide-field image data and the thinned-out data constituted by the plurality of thinned-out data outputted after the switching.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2007Date of Patent: May 29, 2012Assignees: Sony Corporation, OPT CorporationInventors: Ryo Kamiya, Masayuki Ito
