Abstract:
A method for generating an output image associated with a point in time between a first image and a second image, comprising:determining a motion vector for each pixel in an image at a map time between the first image and the second image, wherein the map time is different from the point in time of the output image, wherein the motion vector describes motion of a pixel of the image at the map time to a first point in the first image and a second point in the second image; calculating a factor that represents the point in time between the first image and the second image at which the output image occurs; warping the first image according to the determined motion vectors and the factor; warping the second image according to the determined motion vectors and the factor; and blending the warped first image and the warped second image according to the factor to obtain the output image.
