Abstract
A method for demosaicing, performed by a processing unit, at least containing: acquiring a frame with a Bayer pattern, wherein the Bayer pattern has alternating red (R), green (G) and blue (B) pixels; calculating a green (RG) value for each R pixel; calculating a green (BG) value for each B pixel; calculating a blue (RB) value for each R pixel; and calculating a red (BR) value for each B pixel. The step of calculating an RG or BG value for each R or B pixel at least contains: selecting one of a first interpolation algorithm and a second interpolation algorithm according to chrominance differences between the R or B pixel and surrounding pixels in a horizontal direction and a vertical direction; and using the selected interpolation algorithm to calculate the RG or BG value for the R or B pixel.
