VIDEO CONVERTING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18610360 titled 'VIDEO CONVERTING APPARATUS
The abstract of a patent application describes a video converting apparatus that includes an image buffer unit, a super-resolution processing unit, and a prediction image generation unit.
- The image buffer unit stores multiple images.
- The super-resolution processing unit enhances the quality of an input image to output a super-resolution image.
- The prediction image generation unit uses the super-resolution image to generate a prediction image.
Potential Applications: This technology can be used in video editing software to improve the quality of images and videos. It can also be applied in surveillance systems to enhance the clarity of captured footage.
Problems Solved: This technology addresses the issue of low-resolution images and videos by providing a method to enhance their quality.
Benefits: Improved image and video quality. Enhanced clarity and detail in visuals. Enhanced prediction capabilities based on super-resolution images.
Commercial Applications: This technology can be utilized in the film industry, security and surveillance systems, and video editing software to enhance the quality of visuals and improve overall user experience.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does super-resolution processing improve image quality? Super-resolution processing enhances the resolution and clarity of images by using advanced algorithms to predict and generate missing details. 2. What are the potential drawbacks of using super-resolution processing in video conversion? Super-resolution processing may require significant computational resources and processing time, which could impact real-time applications.
Original Abstract Submitted
A video converting apparatus includes an image buffer unit configured to store multiple images, a super-resolution processing unit configured to perform super-resolution processing on an image input from the image buffer unit to output a super-resolution image, and a prediction image generation unit configured to reference the super-resolution image output by the super-resolution processing unit to generate a prediction image.
