Abstract
In one embodiment, the methods and apparatuses detect content that represents original image information; detect a direction of the content wherein the direction corresponds to a portion of the original image information; compare a variation between adjacent pixels that are represented by the original image information; and generate new image information based on the direction of the content and the variation between the adjacent pixels.
Claims24
A method comprising:
- detecting content that represents original image information;
- detecting a direction of the content wherein the direction corresponds to a portion of the original image information;
- comparing a variation between adjacent pixels that are represented by the original image information;
- and
- generating new image information based on the direction of the content and the variation between the adjacent pixels.
2 more elements
A system, comprising:
- a content detection module configured for detecting content that represents a portion of an original image;
- a direction detection module configured for detecting a direction of related pixels that comprise the content;
- a variation detection module configured for detecting a variation between adjacent pixels that comprise the content;
- and
- an interface module configured for generating new image information for at least a portion of a frame based on the direction and the variation.
2 more elements
A computer-readable medium having computer executable instructions for performing a method comprising:
- detecting content that represents original image information;
- detecting a direction of the content wherein the direction corresponds to a portion of the original image information;
- comparing a variation between adjacent pixels that are represented by the original image information;
- and
- generating new image information based on the direction of the content and the variation between the adjacent pixels.
2 more elements
A method comprising:
- selecting content that represents at least a portion of an original image;
- detecting a direction of the content based on related pixels within the content;
- detecting an angle of the direction relative to an axis;
- comparing the angle with a threshold;
- and
- adjusting the portion of the original image as the content based on the threshold.
