An image compensation device is disclosed. The image compensation image compensation device comprises a 3D band pass filter, a 3D notch filter, a 3D notch mixing unit, a 3D summing unit, a non-3D notch filter, a non-3D band pass filter, a non-3D notch mixing unit, a non-3D band pass mixing unit, and a non-3D summing unit. The 3D notch mixing unit is used for compensating an output of the 3D notch filter. The non-3D notch mixing unit is used for compensating an output of the non-3D notch filter. The non-3D band pass mixing unit is used for compensating an output of the non-3D band pass filter. The image compensation device of the present invention is capable of avoiding the unstable and sparkle-like situation in the prior arts.

Image compensation device

An image sharpness device and a method for the same are disclosed. The image sharpness device includes a DC removal unit, at least one filter, at least one noise estimation unit, at least one soft threshold processing unit, and a summing unit. The DC removal unit receives a luminance signal of a field of a frame and removes a DC component of the luminance signal. The filter passes a component of an output of the DC removal unit within a predetermined frequency band. The noise estimation unit estimates a noise value of the field. The soft threshold processing unit forms a sharpness signal according to the noise value. The summing unit sums the luminance signal and the sharpness signal to output a resultant luminance signal. The present invention is capable of avoiding the problem that a noise in the luminance signal is enhanced.
