Abstract
A system for generating an output image based on an original image via an imaging application can comprise a parsing module, an optical flow displacement module, and a new pixel generation module. The parsing module can establish a magnified resolution lattice from an original resolution lattice of the original image. The optical flow displacement module can establish optical displacement vectors extending, within the magnified resolution lattice, between original pixels and optical displacement locations, the optical displacement vectors based on one-dimensional optical flow brightness constraint calculations for the original pixels. The new pixel generation module can generate new pixels in the magnified resolution lattice via one or more interpolations based on the optical displacement vectors. Other embodiments and related methods are also disclosed herein.
