Abstract:
A method for converting an image and an image conversion unit are provided, the method comprising: determining a target pixel of pixels of the image; calculating a first value based on pixel values of a first set of pixels, wherein the first set of pixels do not include pixels in a column of the target pixel; determining a second value based on pixel values of a second set of pixels, wherein the second set of pixels are located in the column of the target pixel; and determining a pixel value of the target pixel based on adding the first and second values. The method and the image conversion unit are used e.g. for converting an image in interlaced format to progressive scan format.
