ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a method of compensating a signal of an image of one screen for distortions in the horizontal and/or vertical directions of a screen of the image. The method includes the steps of: dividing one screen area of the image into a plurality of picture divisions; and detecting a movement vector of the image for each particular one of the picture divisions from information on a difference in image between the particular picture division on one of two screens and the particular division on the other of the two screens. The method further includes the steps of: finding a difference in the detected movement vector between any specific picture division and a picture division adjacent to the specific picture division in order to detect a velocity of a change in image distortion for the specific picture division; and compensating the image for a distortion for each of the picture divisions on the basis of a velocity detected for each of the picture divisions as the velocity of a change in image distortion.
