Video path architecture including logic filters for resolution conversion of digital images

摘要

The present invention is a method and apparatus for logic based resolution conversion of digital images. The invention employs an interlocked area mapping technique to provide one or more resolution converted bit planes of digital image data. The system has particular use in highlight color systems, wherein the highlight color data may be processed separately for each color plane, using the present invention, and then recombined to produce enhanced highlight color output.
