Abstract
A method for motion detection based on observing several pictures is disclosed. Step (A) may compute a first motion score of an area in a target picture by a comparison of the area between the target picture and a first reference picture. Step (B) may compute a second motion score of the area by another comparison of the area between the target picture or a second reference picture and a third reference picture. Step (C) may temporal filter the target picture with the first reference picture based on the first motion score and the second motion score. At least one of the computing of the first motion score, the computing of the second motion score, and the temporal filtering may be controlled by one or more gain settings in a circuit. At least two of the first, the second, and the third reference pictures may be different pictures.
