Patent attributes
An image processing device which includes: an image data inputting unit that inputs image data; a converting unit that converts image data inputted by the image data inputting unit into data of channels in a predetermined color space; a ground detecting unit that detects respective ground levels from the data of each of the channels converted by the converting unit; a calculating unit that calculates a ground removing level for each of the channel, based on the ground level of each of the channels detected by the ground detecting unit; a ground removing unit that performs a ground removing process for each of the channels, based on the ground removing level of each of the channels calculated by the calculating unit; and a creating unit that creates image data in which the ground is removed, based on the data for each of the channels for which the ground removing process is performed by the ground removing unit.
