Abstract: An image processing apparatus that includes a dummy region adding section configured to add a dummy region to an end part of image data and a dividing position determining section configured to randomly determine a dividing position at which the image data is divided into a plurality of pieces of rectangular image data having the same shape. The image processing apparatus also includes a dividing section configured to divide the image data into the plurality of pieces of rectangular image data based on the dividing position determined by the dividing position determining section and a compressing section configured to compress the plurality of pieces of rectangular image data obtained through a dividing operation of the dividing section.

Abstract: An image processor includes: a first division control information acquiring circuit configured to acquire division control information of a first chip; a second division control information acquiring circuit configured to acquire division control information of a second chip; a division process control circuit configured to determine a ratio at which a process is performed by the first image processing circuit and a ratio at which a process is performed by the second image processing circuit, based on the division control information of the first chip and the division control information of the second chip; a division circuit configured to divide data to be subjected to image processing into first-chip data and second-chip data at the determined ratios; the first image processing circuit configured to perform image processing on the first-chip data; and the second image processing circuit configured to perform image processing on the second-chip data.
