Patent ID: 7538824

Claim:
A method of deinterlacing comprising: generating, by motion adaptive deinterlacing, a deinterlaced display frame including a reference field of lines of display pixels of a first parity and a generated field of lines of display pixels of a second parity, comprising: interpolating between pixels of the reference field to generate pixels in the generated field in areas of the deinterlaced frame having motion; and weaving pixels from a following field of lines of the second parity to generate pixels in the generated field in areas of the deinterlaced frame without motion; generating a frame motion map including bits representing a presence of motion or an absence of motion at corresponding display pixels of the reference and generated fields; testing for noise at a selected display pixel of the reference field utilizing the frame motion map; and in response to detecting noise at the selected display pixel of the reference field, replacing a pixel value corresponding to the selected display pixel with a pixel value generated by interpolating between display pixel values corresponding to neighboring display pixels in the generated field.
