Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A contour correction device is provided having a video image judging unit which executes an edge detection process to detect a change of a signal in a video image as an edge portion, and a texture detection process to detect a texture portion in which a change of signal smaller than the edge portion in the video image repeatedly appears, and a contour component gain adjusting unit which applies contour correction processes which differ from each other to the edge portion and the texture portion.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A contour correction device, comprising: a video image judging unit which executes an edge detection process to detect a change of a signal in a video image as an edge portion and a texture detection process to detect a texture portion in which a change of a signal smaller than the edge portion repeatedly appears in the video image, wherein the edge detection process is executed for a process target range within the video image to determine if a process targ…
