Abstract
An apparatus for mixing portions of a video signal produced by a single video source. The apparatus includes an input terminal for receiving a current video signal. A memory, coupled to the input terminal, receives the current video signal and stores a plurality of frames of the current video signal to produce a delayed video signal. A mixer, coupled to the input terminal and the memory, combines the current video signal and the delayed video signal to produce a mixed video signal. The mixer may combine video signals in a first domain, such as the spatial domain, or video signals that have been transformed into a second domain, such as the spatial frequency domain.
