ABSTRACT:
An apparatus receives a base image and a reference image that are images picked up by two cameras provided on left and right. A weight coefficient determination portion determines a coefficient for cutting off a high-frequency region of combined phase spectrum of the base image and the reference image, based on an image pickup condition of the camera and texture information of the image in a window centered on a gaze point within the base image.
