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. A drawing section generates a display image of a given viewpoint using a first layer image including a texture image and a depth image of an omnidirectional image at a first viewpoint and a second layer image including a texture image and a depth image at a second viewpoint different from the first viewpoint in an occlusion region at a viewpoint of the first layer image. 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.
