METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MOTION VECTOR ESTIMATION USING A PIVOTAL PIXEL SEARCH
First Claim
1. A system for image processing, the system comprising:
- one or more circuits that enable selection of an interpolated picture element neighborhood within an interpolated image frame;
said one or more circuits enable selection of one of a plurality of computed candidate motion vectors based on a location of said interpolated picture element neighborhood within said interpolated image frame; and
said one or more circuits enable generation of picture element values within said selected interpolated picture element neighborhood based on at least said selected one of said plurality of computed candidate motion vectors.

Abstract
Aspects of a method and system for motion vector estimation using a pivotal pixel search are presented. Aspects of the system may include an image interpolation system that enables selection of an interpolated picture element neighborhood within an interpolated image frame. The image interpolation system may enable selection of one of a plurality of computed candidate motion vectors based on the location of the interpolated picture element neighborhood within the interpolated image frame. The image interpolation system may enable generation of picture element values within the selected interpolated picture element neighborhood based on at least the selected one of the plurality of computed candidate motion vectors.
