Patent ID: 6980215

Claim:
A Method for displaying a video image on a display device which comprises a plurality of cells in which the grey levels are obtained by temporal integration over a given period of a plurality of subfields for which each cell is either on or off, comprising the steps of: estimating the movement between an image to be displayed and a previous image, the movement vectors obtained by the movement estimation being grouped in parallel vector fields, determining, for each subfield and for each cell, the movement vector to be applied, and determining, for each subfield and for each cell, the grey level according to at least one of said image to be displayed, said previous image and said movement vector, wherein, for a given subfield, if a cell is subjected to a single parallel-vector field, the movement vector and the grey level determined for said cell are respectively the corresponding movement vector of said vector field and the grey level of the image to be displayed or the previous image to which said movement vector points, if a cell is subjected to at least two parallel-vector fields, the movement vectors parallel to all the fields passing through the cell are determined, the movement vector determined for said cell is the movement vector for which the grey levels of the image to be displayed and of the previous image are the closest and the grey level determined for said cell is the grey level of the image to be displayed or the previous image to which the movement vector points, and if a cell is not subjected to any vector field, the movement vector and the grey level determined for said cell are respectively a resulting movement vector depending on the neighboring vectors estimated for the image to be displayed or the previous image and the grey level of the image to be displayed or the previous image to which said resulting movement vector points.
