Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and imaging apparatus
Abstract:
A filter section uses pixel signals of a polarization image generated by an imaging section, in which polarization pixels with a plurality of polarization directions are provided in a predetermined array, to perform a filter process of the image signals arranged in a polarization order in a predetermined rotation direction to extract polarization components. Further, in the imaging section, the polarization pixels with the plurality of polarization directions may be provided in a polarization order of a predetermined rotation direction in at least one of the horizontal direction or the vertical direction. The filter section can acquire polarization components, which vary in response to a polarization cycle, with high accuracy from the polarization image generated by the imaging section.
