Patent Images

1. An active cable, comprising:

  • an interface configured to receive a video signal comprising a certain format; and

    processing circuitry configured to process the received video signal, wherein the processing circuitry comprises a multi-dimensional image data enhancement device, the multidimensional image data enhancement device comprising;

    a convolutional low pass filter configured to convolutionally filter image data in a plurality of dimensions;

    a feedback loop coupled to an output of the convolutional low pass filter, the feedback loop configured to receive filtered data from the output of the convolutional low pass filter; and

    a multiplexer, coupled to the feedback loop and an input of the convolutional low pass filter, the multiplexer configured to multiplex image data and filtered data under the control of a control signal, the control signal configured to indicate when the image data comprises blanking data and to control the operational rate of the convolutional low pass filter.
