Registration of separations
First Claim
1. An apparatus having stored thereon at least the following:
- a first image based on first content of a first digitized film separation, the first digitized film separation being a first digitized film separation of a picture; and
a second image based on second content of a second digitized film separation, the second digitized film separation being a second digitized film separation of the picture, a film distortion corresponding to the first and second images being relatively small in comparison with a film distortion corresponding to the first and second digitized film separations, the second image being configured based on a translation of only a strict subset of the second content.

Abstract
Separations or images relating to film or other fields may be registered using a variety of features, such as, for example: (1) correcting one or more film distortions; (2) automatically determining a transformation to reduce a film distortion; (3) applying multiple criteria of merit to a set of features to determine a set of features to use in determining a transformation; (4) determining transformations for areas in an image or a separation in a radial order; (5) comparing areas in images or separations by weighting feature pixels differently than non-feature pixels; (6) determining distortion values for transformations by applying a partial distortion measure and/or using a spiral search configuration; (7) determining transformations by using different sets of features to determine corresponding transformation parameters in an iterative manner; and (8) applying a feathering technique to neighboring areas within an image or separation.

17. A portable storage device comprising:
-
a medium configured to record information; a first frame recorded on the medium and corresponding to content originally recorded using a Technicolor three-color film separation process; and a second frame recorded on the medium and corresponding to the content originally recorded using the Technicolor three-color film separation process, at least the first frame and the second frame being included in a sequence of frames recorded on the medium, the sequence of frames being configured to reproduce a display of the content originally recorded using the Technicolor three-color film separation process, the display of the content being substantially free of a distortion that (a) is typically present in movies originally recorded using the Technicolor three-color film separation process and (b) is noticeably present to a human eye in a corresponding sequence of frames from an original recording of the content. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
