Samsung patents display method that switches image scaling styles per frame

Samsung has filed a patent for an electronic device that processes images by scaling them using two different interpolation methods. The system displays the first scaled image in some frames and the second scaled image in the remaining frames of a video sequence.

Why it mattersThis technique could potentially improve how images are resized on screens by varying the processing method frame-by-frame, though the specific visual benefits are not detailed in the filing.

In the filing’s own words

An electronic device includes a display, memory storing a program or at least one instruction, and at least one processor, including processing circuitry, wherein at least one processor individually or collectively is configured to execute the program or the at least one instruction stored in the memory and to cause the electronic device to obtain an input image, obtain a first output image by performing scaling on the input image using first interpolation, obtain a second output image by performing scaling on the input image using second interpolation different from the first interpolation, and display, through the display, the first output image in at least one first frame from among a plurality of output frames and the second output image in at least one second frame, the second frame being a remaining frame.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. An electronic device comprising: a display; memory storing a program or at least one instruction; and at least one processor, comprising processing circuitry, wherein at least one processor, individually or collectively, is configured to execute the program or the at least one instruction stored in the memory and to cause the electronic device to: obtain an input image; obtain a first output image by performing scaling on the input image using first interpolation; obtain a second output image by performing scaling on the input image using second interpolation different from the first interpolation; and display, through the display, the first output image in at least one first frame from among a plurality of output frames and the second output image in at least one second frame, the at least one second frame being a remaining frame.
