In this paper, we describe our development of Frame Rate Conversion (FRC) technology that provides picture quality improvement for LCD by doubling its frame rate. Based on an analysis of motion speed of real broadcasting video, we point out that the "character telop" is a special type of input signal that is considered to be able to obtain a significant picture quality improvement by using double-frame rate LCD-TV. Then, an FRC technology that has a feature of improving a picture quality of "character telop" in particular, as well as a LSI implementing FRC is introduced. We also verified that the FRC was effective by actually measuring the effect using TV sets equipped with the FRC-LSI.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
