ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparatus for converting the gray images inputted from the image pickup elements into binary images without losing the shape information of the gray images. The image processing method comprises the steps of obtaining the maximum values and the minimum values of the density for each horizontal scanning line and each vertical scanning line of the inputted images, obtaining the threshold values from the adjacent maximum values and minimum values, obtaining the two type binary images for each horizontal scanning line and each vertical scanning line with the threshold values, obtaining the composed binary images with the logical product or the logical sum between the respective pixels of the above two type binary images.
