20090147132 | IMAGE INTERPOLATION APPARATUS - A first feature value calculator calculates a feature value of an entire screen, and a second feature value calculator calculates a feature value of only an image area designated by designation data stored in a designation data storage. An interpolation determiner outputs a control signal indicative of interpolation-ON if the two feature values are matched or outputs a control signal indicative of interpolation-OFF if not. A center area interpolator uses a motion vector output from a motion estimator to generate an interpolated image within an image area. Side area interpolator performs process of interpolating a side area of the screen on interpolation-ON and stops the process of interpolating a side area of the screen on interpolation-OFF. Therefore, on interpolation-ON, an interpolated frame interpolating the entire screen is output. On interpolation-OFF, an interpolated frame interpolating only the designated image area is output. | 06-11-2009 |
