摘要:
A pixel defect detecting and correcting apparatus and method for detecting and correcting defects where the number of correctable defect pixels is not restricted to the capacity of a memory. The apparatus includes a color difference and luminance calculating block which calculates the absolute values of the color differences of adjacent pixels and a defect judgment target pixel, and color difference and luminance data. The apparatus also includes a maximum and minimum data values detecting block; a color difference interpolated value calculating block and a luminance interpolated value calculating block which obtain the color difference interpolated values and luminance interpolated values of the defect judgment target pixel.
摘要:
An image-signal processing apparatus (1) designed to process the signals output from a CCD image sensor (10) that reads pixel data for one screen, line by line, divides the pixel data into a plurality of channels and outputs the pixel data thus divided. The image-signal processing apparatus (1) detects and corrects the black level of each pixel data item that the image sensor (10) has output for one channel. The image-signal processing apparatus (1) detects and corrects the gain difference between channels, which pertain to the pixel data items output from the image sensor. (10). Hence, the apparatus (1) can correct the black level of each pixel data item and the gain difference between channels with high accuracy, when used in combination with an image sensor that divides pixel data into a plurality of channels.
