ABSTRACT:
Blur-free, high-quality frame image data are generated from field image data. Image data of odd-numbered field images and image data of even-numbered field images are alternately applied every 1/60 of a second. The even field image data are applied to a first memory, and data of odd field images located immediately before and immediately after the even field image are applied to respective ones of a second memory and a third memory. Windows are set on the respective images and whether or not motion has occurred between the windows of the two odd field images is detected. If motion has not occurred, data of a pixel missing in the even field is generated using the pixel, of an odd field, at a position corresponding to this pixel missing in the even field and for which data are to be generated. If motion has occurred, the data of a pixel missing in the even field image is generated using pixels above and below the missing pixel in the even field and for which data are to be generated.
