Abstract
A computer-implemented method for automatically identifying defective pixels captured by a motion picture camera within a sequence of frames is disclosed. The method comprises applying a spatio-temporal metric for each pixel in each frame. The metrics are analyzed to determine which pixels have values exceeding a threshold. The operator is provided a graphical display allowing the operator to select either to repair and store the repaired frame with the sequence of motion picture frames of pixel data or just store the sequence of motion picture frames of pixel data.
