Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an image processing apparatus and an image processing method that make it possible to generate a texture image of high picture quality at a predetermined viewpoint using an omnidirectional image.An ML3D model generation section receives transmission information in which auxiliary information is added to at least one of texture information of a first layer, depth information of the first layer, texture information of a second layer or depth information of the second layer, and executes predetermined image processing using the auxiliary information for at least one of the texture information of the first layer, the depth information of the first layer, the texture information of the second layer or the depth information of the second layer. The present disclosure can be applied, for example, to a home server that generates a display image of a predetermined viewpoint from an omnidirectional image or the like.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an image processing apparatus and an image processing method capable of storing auxiliary information in CbCr components in a YCbCr format so as to prevent deterioration by a codec distortion. The image processing apparatus includes a receiving section that receives depth image data in which a depth image transmitted together with a texture image is stored in a Y component in a YCbCr format and auxiliary information is stored in CbCr components in the YCbCr format, and an auxiliary information utilization section that executes a predetermined image process using the auxiliary information on at least one of the texture image or the depth image. A value that can be taken on by the auxiliary information for each pixel of the texture image has N patterns, and a gradation value out of N×N gradation values into which a combination of the auxiliary information regarding two pixels is converted is stored in the CbCr components. The present technique is applicable to, for example, a home server that generates a display image at a predetermined viewpoint from an omnidirectional image.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an image processing apparatus and an image processing method that make it possible to suppress deterioration of picture quality of an image within a viewing range of a viewer. An image processing apparatus includes an image processing section configured to perform, based on priorities between a plurality of encoded streams obtained by encoding a plurality of projection images that are obtained by projecting an omnidirectional image to a plurality of faces or a plurality of viewpoint images from different viewpoints, decoding of the encoded streams and generation or selection of an image to be used for generation of a display image, and a drawing section configured to generate the display image based on the generated or selected image. The present disclosure can be applied to a home server and so forth that generate a display image within a viewing range of a viewer from an omnidirectional image.
