摘要： A de-interlacer includes recursive motion history map generating circuitry operative to determine a motion value associated with one or more pixels in interlaced fields based on pixel intensity information from at least two neighboring same polarity fields. The recursive motion history map generating circuitry generates a motion history map containing recursively generated motion history values for use in de-interlacing interlaced fields wherein the recursively generated motion history values are based, at least in part, on a decay function.

摘要： A video graphics adapter is configured to provide both parallel and sequential color components to separate display monitors. When in a first state, the video graphics adapter provides individual color components to a video-output independent of each other color component, such that an entire frame of a red component will be provided to a video-out port for prior to, or subsequently after, an entire frame of the green component being provided to the video-out port. Each color component is provided to a common port. In response to a second configuration state, a traditional parallel red, green, blue (RGB) data port will be generated in order to provide data to a display device. In yet another configuration state, both the individual color components are provided at a common port, and the individual color components are provided in parallel to an RGB port.

摘要： A method and apparatus for independent video and graphics scaling in a video graphics system is accomplished by receiving a video data stream, wherein the video data stream includes video data in a first format. A graphics data stream is also received, and the graphics data stream includes graphics data in a second format. The video data of the video data stream is scaled based on a ratio between the first format and a selected video format to produce a scaled video stream. Similarly, the graphics data of the graphics data stream is scaled based on a ratio between the second format and a selected graphics format in order to produce a scaled graphics stream. The scaled video stream and the scaled graphics stream are then merged to produce a video graphics output stream.

摘要： A fairing panel retainer can include a retainer strip that is configured to conform to the contour of a vehicle body. The retainer strip includes alternating body attachment segments and raised panel attachment segments in a generally corrugated configuration. In addition, each of the body attachment segments includes a body fastener interface configured to accept a permanent fixed fastener to attach the fairing panel retainer to the vehicle body. Each of the panel attachment segments can include a panel fastener interface, for example, a bore through the panel attachment segment and a fastener plate slidably attached to a lower surface of the panel attachment segment. The body fastener interfaces and the panel fastener interfaces can be closely aligned along a longitudinal line or arc of the retainer strip. The fairing panel retainer can also include a transition surface to provide a smooth transition from the vehicle body surface to a fairing panel.

摘要： A system and method for providing user control of the projection of two-dimensional (2D) image information within the three-dimensional (3D) display space of a 3D-capable display device. Advantageously, the system and method disclosed herein allow a user to view 3D video even when the source video includes 2D content, by allowing the user to adjust the z-axis position of the 2D content, thereby causing the 2D content to be projected at a user-specified image depth within 3D space. The user can adjust the z-axis position of the 2D content in real time while contemporaneously viewing the imagery, e.g., via a remote control, and such adjustment can be stored for later use when similar or other 2D content is being viewed.

摘要： A digital pixel clock generation circuit receives image data and corresponding image presentation time information from at least one external image source. The digital pixel clock generation circuit includes an image presentation timing error determination circuit that produces desired pixel clock frequency control information, such as pixel output clock adjustment control information, based on a difference between an expected presentation time and an actual presentation image time information. A programmable digital waveform generation circuit is programmed based on the produced desired pixel clock frequency and has an input that is responsive to an independent clock source, that is independent from the clock source of the external image source. The programmable digital waveform generation circuit provides a digital representation of an independently generated desired pixel clock which is then output to a digital to analog converter (DAC).

摘要： The present invention is directed to a method and system for improved motion compensated noise reduction. The system uses a temporal noise reduction filter to remove noise from the current input field and pass it through a de-interlacer to produce a noise reduced full output frame. The temporal noise reduction filter reduces noise in the present field by blending it with a predicted (motion compensated) field determined from the immediately preceding full output frame. In accordance with the invention where the current input field is for time or sequence n, the motion compensated field can be determined from the output frame corresponding to time or sequence n−1. In addition, the motion compensated field can be predicted using motion estimation and motion compensation using the current input field and the previous output frame. By using the previous de-interlaced frame which includes the information for both field polarities, the vertical resolution of the motion estimation process can be improved.
