Description

The first order curve coding method and the device thereof of digital image system
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of conversion equipment, particularly relating to one first video conversion is the conversion equipment of one second image.
Background technology
In the treatment technology of image signal, the Gamma conversion usually is utilized the method as the image signal luminance compensation, and general Gamma conversion all is to use the form of the table of comparisons, the corresponding conversion value of each pixel in the image frame is pre-deposited in the table of comparisons, when image frame that input is desired to change, mode by tabling look-up again, the pixel of each image frame is changed, like this then exportable correct image frame, but utilize this kind method to carry out the Gamma conversion, must in advance the corresponding conversion value of each image frame be stored in the table of comparisons, so this kind method must be used huge memory headroom, could realize the effect of Gamma conversion.
For example, in the time an image frame with N position will being carried out single Gamma conversion, must use N*2 N+1The memory headroom of position stores the table of comparisons, just can finish the Gamma conversion of image frame, therefore, how to solve when carrying out the Gamma conversion, because must store the table of comparisons, and uses the problem of huge memory headroom, has become an important problem.
In No. 5706058 disclosed technology of United States Patent (USP), trial is divided into two tables of comparisons that memory headroom is less with the table of comparisons, though so can reduce memory headroom required when carrying out the Gamma conversion, but this kind method but can only be applicable to the conversion of single Gamma coefficient, if the Gamma conversion that image frame is carried out other coefficient then can't use, so this kind method can be restricted in the use.
And in No. 5990949 disclosed technology of United States Patent (USP), the mode of attempting utilizing preview or speed to read removes to compare the table of comparisons, but will realize this kind method, then must re-use another table of comparisons, could realize this method.
Also there is the mode of the computing of utilizing to carry out the Gamma conversion in addition in the prior art, for example in No. 5818521 disclosed technology of United States Patent (USP), promptly be to utilize the equation of second order to carry out the computing that Gamma changes, and utilize actual circuit, reach the effect of image frame being carried out the Gamma conversion, but utilize the circuit of this kind method, must use many multipliers and carry out two exponent arithmetic(al)s, and utilize too many multiplier can cause computational speed slow, circuit bulky, cost is also comparatively expensive in addition.
Therefore main purpose of the present invention provides a kind of conversion equipment, to overcome the problems referred to above.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of conversion equipment, can be one second image with one first video conversion according to a transformation curve.
According to conversion equipment of the present invention, conversion equipment according to a transformation curve in order to being one second image with one first video conversion, first image comprises a plurality of pixels, and conversion equipment comprises one and separates module, one first modular converter, an adjusting module and one second modular converter.Separate module according to a predetermined value, in order to transformation curve is converted to a plurality of sub-curves.First modular converter is according to a plurality of sub-curves, in order to produce many corresponding straight lines.Adjusting module is according to a plurality of sub-curves, many straight lines and a predetermined standard value, in order to adjust many straight lines and to produce many near linears.Second modular converter is according to a plurality of pixels of many near linears and first image, to produce second image.
Conversion equipment of the present invention, separate module and change transformation curve into a plurality of sub-curves, first modular converter produces many corresponding straight lines according to these a plurality of sub-curves again, then utilize these many straight lines of adjusting module adjustment, produce many near linears, second modular converter is again according to these a plurality of pixels of many near linears and this first image, to produce this second image.The transformation curve of second order can be adjusted into the straight line of many single orders by this kind method, do the switching motion of image again according to many straight lines, because the second order computing circuit must use multiplier to carry out, and this method only need be carried out the computing of single order, use simple shifter of arithmetic logic and adder promptly practicable, the time of so can the saving system carrying out computing, and circuit is also comparatively simple, the also relative reduction of the required cost that expends.
