  • Method and apparatus for generating thin lines in video images
    Publication number: 20060221240
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for thinning lines in a video, includes providing a line signal (15) of a video, the line signal (15) having pair of spaced apart transitions (16) which slope toward one another and merge at an edge (17) of a first thickness, the first thickness of the edge generating a line of a given width in the video. At least one of the transitions (16) is moved toward a center of the edge (17), to produce a new line signal (18) having an edge (19) of a second thickness which is less than the first thickness, thereby reducing the given width of the line in the video.
