Product Description

The Video Deinterlacer converts live incoming interlaced video streams into progressive video streams. This process is performed in real time as the input video passes through the Video Deinterlacer. By definition, interlaced images have temporal motion between the two fields that comprise an interlaced frame. The conversion to a progressive format recombines these two fields into one single frame. The raw recombination of interlaced video streams results in unsightly motion artifacts in the progressive output image. For this reason, the Video Deinterlacer uses additional motion tracking and diagonal edge enhancement techniques to ensure that these artifacts are removed where possible. This results in a high-quality progressive output image.


Key Features and Benefits
