ABSTRACT:
A process for transferring images from a first frame system to a second frame system is described. A first sequence from the first frame system is determined so as to include a plurality of image frames, wherein each image frame includes a central timing factor. Likewise, a second sequence from the second frame system is selected so as to include a plurality of image frames, wherein each image frame includes a central timing factor. Each image frame for the newly constructed second frame system is built by combining at least two image frames from the first frame system in a proportion such that the central timing factors of the two image frames of the first frame system combine so as to correspond to the central timing factor for the image frame in the second frame system. In this manner, the images from the first frame system combine in a smooth fashion in the second frame system such that jitter, freezes and jumps are eliminated. This image transfer process may be used to transfer images between the following frame systems: NTSC TV; PAL TV; Film 16; Film 24; Film 60 (Showscan system); and Computer images.
