An image processing device includes an image correction means for applying image-shake correction processing to an input image; a correction-image characteristic detection means for detecting a characteristic of a correction image obtained through the image-shake correction processing; a first characteristic-determination means for outputting selection information, based on a characteristic-detected correction image obtained through detection of the characteristic of the correction image; and an image outputting means for outputting the input image or the correction image, based on the selection information. As a result, it is made possible to obtain a high-quality image with noise reduced.

The present invention provides a control device capable of improving hysteresis characteristics of a voice coil motor (31) and attaining a suitable lens position without complicating the structure of the control device. As solving means of the invention, a voice coil motor control device (30) includes a driving current control part (34) that controls a driving current supplied to the voice coil motor (31) in accordance with a driving pulse subjected to pulse width modulation, and a driving pulse control part (32) that divides a drive period of the voice coil motor (31) into a movement period and a holding period, and controls the driving pulse by changing the duty ratio of the driving pulse during the movement period in accordance with a duty setting value and fixing the duty ratio of the driving pulse during the holding period to the duty setting value.

A regression analysis is carried out (8) using pixel signals having a K-th spectral characteristic as the explanatory variable and pixel signals having an L-th spectral characteristic as the purpose variable in a plurality of pixel positions in an area neighboring a pixel of interest to obtain a pixel signal having the L-th spectral characteristic (9). Pixel signals obtained by low-pass filtering (7a-7c) of the output signals of an imaging device may be used as the explanatory variable and the purpose variable. The occurrence of false colors is thereby reduced when, in a group of pixel signals from pixels arrayed on a two-dimensional plane, each pixel having one of a plurality of spectral characteristics, the missing colors at each pixel position are obtained by interpolation.

An imaging device has color signal generating means (20) for outputting first color signals (R5, G5, B5) corresponding to incident light, and matrix operation means (67) for performing a matrix calculation including multiplication of the first color signals, color signals obtained by raising the first color signals to a power with a first constant (i) as an exponent, color signals obtained by raising the first color signals to a power with a second constant (j) as an exponent, and corresponding matrix coefficients to obtain second color signals (R6, G6, B6). The first and second constants and the matrix coefficients are determined so that the total characteristics of the color signal generating means and the spectral sensitivity characteristic correction means (6) approximate human chromatic curves or spectral sensitivity curves obtained by a linear transformation thereof. Good color reproducibility can be obtained without the use of an infrared cut filter for chromatic correction in the imaging device, and high-sensitivity imaging can be performed under dark conditions.

An imaging apparatus includes an imaging device having a square row-column pixel matrix, and having units for transferring pixel signals in the row direction and the column direction of the matrix. The rows and columns of the pixel matrix are oriented at angles of forty-five degrees with respect to the vertical axis of the imaging apparatus. After being read from the imaging apparatus in row-column order, the pixel signals are reordered to conform to a scanning sequence with horizontal or vertical scanning lines. Alternatively, the pixel signals are read from the imaging device in this scanning sequence. Improved horizontal and vertical resolution is thereby obtained from an imaging apparatus with a conventional square pixel matrix.

In a vehicle hydraulic brake system of a type adapted to release brake fluid discharged from the wheel cylinders into a reservoir for a master cylinder during pressure reduction phase of antilock brake control or vehicle stability control, the volume of the pressure chamber of the master cylinder can decrease until it becomes impossible to further increase pressure as a result of repeated pressure increase and reduction. An inexpensive solution to this problem is provided. The solution includes means for estimating the amount of pressure increase and/or pressure reduction of the wheel cylinders, and solenoid valves provided in a line connecting a pressure source with the master cylinder pressure chamber and adapted to be opened for a calculated time period.

A power source circuit includes switch for connecting and disconnecting a power source to and from a circuit proper; stabilizing means for suppressing a variation of an input voltage to stabilize the input voltage; voltage increasing means for increasing the input voltage in amplitude; switching means for controlling a voltage increasing operation; rectifying means for rectifying a switching waveform; smoothing means for smoothing a rectified waveform; and control means for controlling an output voltage to be constant in amplitude. In the power source circuit, the start of operating the power source circuit is delayed behind the start of supplying electric power. Therefore, it is prevent a power source circuit from failing to operate under the condition that a power source of a large internal resistance is coupled thereto, and the rush current, for example, causes the power source voltage drop.
