Abstract

Data intended to be displayed on a higher resolution display such as a non-interlaced display used as a computer monitor may be converted for display on a lower resolution display such as an interlaced display. The conversion may be done in a way that preserves the intended frame format while enhancing readability. For example, in one embodiment, the frames intended for non-interlaced display may be preserved in size for display in the same frame format on a lower resolution interlaced display. Local magnification may be selectively implemented for particular regions to enhance the readability of those regions. Upon selection, such local magnification may provide pixel loss and color corrections in addition to local magnification. In this way the frame format may be preserved while enhancing readability.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method of displaying information on an lower resolution display comprising:
receiving data formatted for display on a higher resolution non-interlaced display at a first size;
selectively enlarge a portion of the data displayed on a lower resolution display;
converting data formatted for display at said first size on higher resolution non-interlaced display, for display on a lower resolution interlaced display;
locating high saturation colors which a…
