System and method for motion vector collection for motion compensated interpolation of digital video

摘要

A system and method of collection motion vectors for motion compensated interpolation of digital video are disclosed. For example, one embodiment includes a method of identifying motion vectors for interpolating a portion of a digital video signal. The method comprises identifying a plurality of motion vectors indicative of differences between first and second frames of a digital video signal and projecting each of the motion vectors to a location within a third frame at a time associated with the third frame. The method further includes determining a measure of overlap of each projected location with a portion of a third frame to be interpolated, selecting at least one motion vector based on the measure, and generating at least a portion of a third frame based on the selected at least one motion vector selected. Other embodiments include a system and device configured to perform the method.
