IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD

The present technology relates to an image processing apparatus and a method capable of performing calibration of a correction amount in brightness correction more easily. The image processing apparatus according to the present technology performs blending calculation for correcting brightness of an image in accordance with a distance from a projection unit configured to project the image to a projection surface onto which the image is projected, and in accordance with a characteristic of the projection unit. The present technology can be applied, for example, to a projector, a camera, or an electronic apparatus including both function of a projector and a camera, a computer that controls these, and to a system in which an apparatuses having a projector and a camera are operating in cooperation.
