and source adaptive algorithms to eliminate jaggies, combing, and other degrading
effects. PReP can enhance 480p, 576p, 1080p/50 and 1080p/60 signals.
ABT2010 ASIC for OEMs:
Second-generation video processing ASIC for up-conversion (up to 1080p)
applications in DVD, HD-DVD, Blu-Ray player/recorders, and AV receivers.
Featuring Video Reference Series (VRS), 10-bit Precision Deinterlacing with
five-field motion adaptive and edge adaptive processing, 10-bit Precision Video
Scaling II that can independently scale horizontally and vertically, VRS Progressive
Re-Processing (PReP) technology, to revert progressive video to its original
interlaced format, and then converts the interlaced signal to progressive format
using Precision Deinterlacing.
Gennum Corporation
Gennum Corporation is a leading producer of hybrid and silicon integrated circuits
(ICs), electrical components and sub-systems for the video and audio markets, and a
new provider to the data communications market.
CES 2007
The following was declared by
Gennum’s about their new video
processors GF9350 and GF9351, both
suited with VXP Visual Excellence
Processing technology, originally
designed for broadcast quality use.
These products are being implemented
by companies like Christie, Leitch,
Anthem, LG, Samsung, Optoma,
Marantz, and Pixel Magic.
A couple of examples are: high quality
video processors, like Pixel Works’
Crystalio II, and Optoma’s front
projector model 81, true single-chip 1920x1080p DLP projector released 4Q06 (of
which a witness their excellent demos of the model 81 since CES 2006, reason by
which I own one myself since November 2006).
“The VXP technology incorporates fourth generation broadcast quality image
processing algorithms, which deliver superior SD and HD video image quality. The
key features of VXP technology include:
• 1080p adaptive de-interlacing for optimal image sharpness TruMotionHD
1080i and resolution.
• FineEdge dynamic directional interpolation to eliminate jaggy artifacts found
in traditional de-interlacing algorithms.
• FidelityEngine image enhancements for removal of unwanted noise and
improved detail and uncompromised image quality.
• RealityExpansion10-bit image processing for eye-catching natural imagery.”
