Abstract

See full text

An image synthesis apparatus includes an image obtainer obtaining a plurality of images taken by a plurality of cameras; a pixel value corrector which, with respect to each of the images, calculates a correction factor of an average pixel value in overlap regions located at the both ends of an image and, in the adjacent direction of the images, calculates the correction factor of a pixel value in a region other than the overlap regions by a predetermined continuous function connecting the correction factors in the overlap regions and corrects the entire image based on the calculated correction factor; a synthetic image generator synthesizing the images corrected by the pixel value corrector to generate one synthetic image; and an image output outputting the synthetic image to an external apparatus.
