Abstract

In order to explore suitable video processing algorithms for a unique all digital display system, the DLP (digital light processing) projection system using the DMD (digital micro-mirror device), a high performance programmable video processor has been desired. A SIMD (single instruction multiple data stream) type real-time video processor, the SVP2 (second generation scan-line video processor) is used to implement the majority of algorithms required on the DLP systems. The SVP2 is fully programmable to create various video algorithms. The SVP2 device architecture, the optimal software programming schemes, and the developed video signal enhancement algorithms including a deinterlacer, a peaking and a simple chroma transient improvement (CTI) optimized on an SVP2 are described
