Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- constructing a second plurality of time-sequential frames having a second resolution from a first plurality of time-sequential frames having a first resolution, the second resolution being lower than the first resolution; and
constructing an image from the second plurality of time sequential frames, the image having a resolution that is higher than the second resolution.

Abstract
A method for constructing a high-resolution image includes constructing a second plurality of time-sequential frames having a second resolution from a first plurality of time-sequential frames having a first resolution, the second resolution being lower than the first resolution, and constructing an image from the second plurality of time sequential frames, the image having a resolution that is higher than the second resolution.

14. A method comprising:
-
obtaining a plurality of time-sequenced frames of higher-resolution image data, each of the plurality of frames being defined by a plurality of pixel values, such that each of the plurality of pixel values corresponds to a location in a matrix;
generating a frame of lower-resolution image data for each of the plurality of time-sequenced frames of higher-resolution image data, such that pixel values corresponding collectively to substantially all locations in the matrix are used in the plurality of lower-resolution frames of image data; and
constructing at least one higher-resolution image from the plurality of lower-resolution frames of image data. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)
