US Patent 7477319 Systems and methods for deinterlacing video signals

A method for rendering an object on a display screen, comprising the steps of (A) buffering a plurality of pixels in a plurality of line buffers, (B) determining a boundary of the object based on the buffered pixels, (C) determining a direction of the boundary, (D) testing if a pixel in the line buffers is in motion and applying one of a plurality of filter coefficients if the pixel is in motion, where the plurality of filter coefficients define a modified median filter having a predetermined threshold and (E) interpolating a new pixel in the direction of the boundary.
