  • Patent number: 5854659
    Abstract: In a process for processing a first video picture with image points in m.sub.1 lines, whose image points in the l.sub.1 -th line have an intensity I.sub.1 (t, l.sub.1) depending on a parameter t, in particular depending on time, for generating a second video picture with m.sub.2 lines, the respective intensity I.sub.2 (t, l.sub.2) of an image point in the l.sub.2 -th line of the second video picture is interpolated from the intensities of the image points of the first video picture I.sub.1 (t, l.sub.1), wherein I.sub.2 is obtained according to the following equation:I.sub.2 (t,l.sub.2)=Max(J(t,l.sub.2)+.DELTA.;0),where the values J, with respect to the lines, represent discretized values of a signal waveform given by the sampling theorem and in which an offset .DELTA.
