    摘要: A signal conversion apparatus which converts an input signal x from an image sensor into an output signal y by a function relation represented by Expression 1: y = f ⁡ ( x ) = ∫ b x ⁢ [ 1 / r ⁡ ( ξ ) ] ⁢ ⅆ ξ ( 1 ) where b is a predetermined constant, ξ is an integration variable corresponding to a value of the input signal x, and r(ξ) is a quantization step function before removal of a noise of the input signal x, which determines an increment of the input signal x to an increment of the output signal y.

    摘要: A whole image showing the entire range of the object of shooting is generated by picking up unit images, each constituting a part of the scenic range to be imaged, by sequentially shifting the image pickup direction, cutting out image regions of a predetermined size, each constituting a part of each of the unit images picked up in the image pickup step, so as to produce overlapping areas and sequentially and partly superposing the image region. The noise components of the image regions are uniformized to improve the image quality by cutting out image regions as to make two or more than two image regions overlap each other in average for the position of each unit image of the whole image to be generated.
