    摘要: A pixel signal having a k-th spectral characteristic at a pixel interpolation position occupied by a pixel signal having an h-th spectral characteristic is generated from a set of pixel signals arrayed in a two-dimensional plane, each having one of a plurality of spectral characteristics, by calculating a difference between low-frequency components, corresponding to a degree of correlation between pixel signals having the k-th and h-th spectral characteristics in a neighborhood of the pixel interpolation position (8r, 8g, 8b, 24k, 24h, 26), calculating a non-correlation value corresponding to a degree of non-correlation between the pixel signals having the k-th and h-th spectral characteristics in the neighborhood of the pixel interpolation position (7r, 7g, 7b, 23k, 23h, 25), and obtaining the pixel signal having the k-th spectral characteristic at the pixel interpolation position by using the calculated difference and the non-correlation value (27, 28, 29). Accurate interpolation can be performed despite various different correlation relationships between color component values.

    摘要: An image pickup apparatus includes a solid-state imaging device, an accumulating section, first and second imaging parameter setting sections, a calculating section, a flicker detecting section, and a switching section. The accumulating section calculates a projection output value of a predetermined line in a frame. The calculating section calculates inter-frame variations of the projection output values, and calculates a flicker index from the variations of a predetermined number of frames. The flicker detecting section detects the flicker from the index, and controls the switching section in response to the detection result of the flicker, so that the switching section selects either the setting signals from the first imaging parameter setting section or the setting signals from the second imaging parameter setting section. Thus, the charge storage time of the solid-state imaging device is set at either an integer multiple of 1/100 second or an integer multiple of 1/120 second in response to the frequency (50 Hz or 60 Hz) of a power supply of the fluorescent lighting. The image pickup apparatus can solve a problem of a conventional apparatus in that it is difficult for the conventional apparatus to suppress the flicker in regions where the frequency of the power supply differ from each other.

    摘要: A first LUT composed of table values of brightness of N subjects determined in such a manner that the integrated value is made to be constant and a second LUT composed of table values of N charge storage time periods corresponding to the table values of the brightness of the N subjects are provided. When an image has been picked up with charge storage time at an n-th address in the second LUT, integrated value &Sgr; obtained by the calculating means 6 is divided by the n-th charge storage time S so that the brightness L of the subject is calculated. The charge storage time S corresponding to the calculated brightness L of the subject is selected from the first and second LUT so that exposure is controlled.

    摘要: 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.
