Abstract
A video de-interlacer forms a first new-pixel value from motion compensation of a pixel of a previous field with a first motion vector and forms a second new-pixel value from motion compensation of a pixel of a next field with a second motion vector. These two new-pixel values are then summed with a weighting which depends upon the respective confidence values associated with the two motion vectors.
