Abstract

An image signal processing apparatus includes: a color-data generator that generates color data of a correction coordinate point by interpolating color data of pixels in the same color line above and below the correction coordinate point; a first luminance generator that generates first luminance data of the correction coordinate point by interpolating the luminance data of the pixels in the same color line above and below the correction coordinate point; a second luminance generator that generates second luminance data of the correction coordinate point by interpolating the luminance data of the pixels above and below the correction coordinate point; and a complementary-color-data generator that generates the complementary-color data of the correction coordinate point based on the generated color data, the first luminance data, and the second luminance data.

Claims (25)

1. An image signal processing apparatus comprising:

a frame memory that stores image data of a complementary-color-field color-difference sequential system;

an address generator, that generates, based on previously-provided distortion information, an address indicating a respective position on the frame memory corresponding to a position of each pixel in a screen to be displayed;

a color-data generator, that generates color data of a point specified by the address by interpolating other color data of pixels, the pixels being in a same column included in a predetermined number of lines located above and below the point and having a same color line as a color line to be generated by interpolation;

a color-data-related luminance-data generator, that generates first luminance data of the point specified by the address by interpolating luminance data of the pixels, the pixels being in the same column included in the predetermined number of lines located above and below the point and having the same color line as the color line to be generated by the interpolation;

a luminance-based-data generator, that generates second luminance data of the point specified by the address by interpolating the luminance data of the pixels, the pixels being in the same column included in the predetermined number of lines located above and below the point; and

a complementary-color-data generator, that generates complementary-color data of the point specified by the address based on the color data, the first luminance data, and the second luminance data, the address generator, the color-data generator, the color-data-related luminance data generator, the luminance based data generator and the complementary color data generator being implemented by a processor.

2. The image signal processing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a luminance-color-signal generator that generates a luminance-color signal based on the complementary-color data generated by the complementary-color-data generator; and

a correction processor that corrects distortion in a horizontal direction of the luminance-color signal generated by the luminance-color-signal generator.

3. An image signal processing method comprising:

storing image data of a complementary-color-field color-difference sequential system in a frame memory;

generating, based on previously-provided distortion information, an address indicating a respective position on the frame memory corresponding to a position of each pixel in a screen to be displayed;

generating color data of a point specified by the address by interpolating other color data of pixels, the pixels being in a same column included in a predetermined number of lines located above and below the point and having a same color line as a color line to be generated by interpolation;

generating first luminance data of the point specified by the address by interpolating luminance data of the pixels, the pixels being in the same column included in the predetermined number of lines located above and below the point and having the same color line as the color line to be generated by the interpolation;

generating second luminance data of the point specified by the address by interpolating the luminance data of the pixels, the pixels being in the same column included in the predetermined number of lines located above and below the point; and

generating complementary-color data of the point specified by the address based on the color data, the first luminance data, and the second luminance data.

4. A non-transitory computer readable recording medium that stores a program for correcting distortion in image data of a complementary-color-field color-difference sequential system, the program causing a computer to execute:

storing the image data in a frame memory;

generating, based on previously-provided distortion information, an address indicating a respective position on the frame memory corresponding to a position of each pixel in a screen to be displayed;

generating color data of a point specified by the address by interpolating other color data of pixels, the pixels being in a same column included in a predetermined number of lines located above and below the point and having a same color line as a color line to be generated by interpolation;

generating first luminance data of the point specified by the address by interpolating luminance data of the pixels, the pixels being in the same column included in the predetermined number of lines located above and below the point and having the same color line as the color line to be generated by the interpolation;

generating second luminance data of the point specified by the address by interpolating the luminance data of the pixels, the pixels being in the same column included in the predetermined number of lines located above and below the point; and

generating complementary-color data of the point specified by the address based on the color data, the first luminance data, and the second luminance data.

5. The image signal processing method according to claim 3 , wherein at least of one of the storing, the generating the address, the generating color data, the generating the first luminance data, the generating the second luminance data, and the generating the complementary-color data is performed by a processor.
