  • Publication number: 20030202780
    Abstract: Method and system for interpolating video frames are described in a system for enhancing video playback. The interpolation mechanism generates at least one interpolated frame between a first actual frame and a second actual frame. First, the first actual frame is fetched from, for example, a frame buffer or local storage. Second, the second actual frame is also fetched from, for example, a frame buffer or local storage. Then, a determination is made whether or not to generate one or more intermediate frames. If so, an intermediate frame is interpolated based on the first actual frame and the second actual frame. Finally, all individual frames are optionally clarified or enhanced before being sent to a consumer of the stream of frames.
