发明名称 LEGIBILITY ENHANCEMENT FOR A LOGO, TEXT OR OTHER REGION OF INTEREST IN VIDEO
摘要 A video processing system enhances quality of an overlay image, such as a logo, text, game scores, or other areas forming a region of interest (ROI) in a video stream. The system separately enhances the video quality of the ROI, particularly when screen size is reduced. The data enhancement can be accomplished at decoding with metadata provided with the video data for decoding so that the ROI that can be separately enhanced from the video. In improve legibility, the ROI enhancer can increase contrast, brightness, hue, saturation, and bit density of the ROI. The ROI enhancer can operate down to a pixel-by-pixel level. The ROI enhancer may use stored reference picture templates to enhance a current ROI based on a comparison. When the ROI includes text, a minimum reduction size for the ROI relative to the remaining video can be identified so that the ROI is not reduced below human perceptibility.

主权项 1. A method for video signal processing comprising: identifying an overlay region of interest (ROI) in a frame of a video signal; providing a sizing factor for the ROI relative to a remaining portion of the frame of the video signal so that when a screen display size is below a predetermined amount, the ROI can be scaled relative to the remaining portion of the frame of the video signal; and providing the sizing factor as metadata with the frame to a decoder for use in decoding the frame when a screen size for the decoded frame has a smaller form factor than an original form factor of the video signal.
