Method and apparatus for global-to-local block motion estimation

摘要: Apparatus and a concomitant method for estimating motion vectors having as an input first image frame (300) second (302), each containing plurality of pixels representing image. The apparatus comprises: pyramid processor (102) decimating search area (316) within the to produce reduced resolution (304) block in (302) pixel (308); global system (104) performing (310) using (308) until substantially matches matching (310); means (106) computing estimated vector distance between location frame.
