Abstract:
An image data transmitting device inputs and outputs to an external device, fisheye image data that includes a fisheye image captured by a lens that causes distortion to occur in an image at a wide angle view. The image data transmitting device includes a distortion correction processing unit that corrects the distortion of the fisheye image and forms a distortion corrected image; and a transmission image data generating unit divides along a scanning line, the distortion corrected image into a plurality of lines, re-arranges the lines based on a given criterion, forms a converted image, inserts the converted imaged into an area in which no effective video signal of the fisheye image data is present, and generates transmission image data.
