Abstract

See full text

An image processing device processes image data and map data with regard to depth distribution of subjects. A decoding unit decodes encoded image data obtained by encoding image data of a subject image, and thereby generates decoded image data. Another decoding unit decodes encoded map data obtained by encoding map data and thereby generates decoded map data. A defocus map shaping unit acquires decoded image data and decoded map data, performs a shaping process of the decoded map data with reference to the decoded image data, and thereby generates shaped map data. A background blurring unit refers to the shaped map data and performs image processing of adding blur to a background of the decoded image.
