3. Hardware Installation Overview of Edge-Blending Technology is usually performed by a seamless switching system such as the Encore Video Processor, or BlendPRO-II. Reformatting allows the resultant images to provide seamless switching, integration of picture-in-picture (PIP) video and keying features. Note that the input image can be effectively spread to cover multiple screens, however, the inherent resolution of the output image remains that of the source material, 1920x1080 pixels.
3. Hardware Installation Overview of Edge-Blending Technology sáÇÉç=mêçÅÉëëáåÖ The purpose of the edge-blending process is to provide a smooth transition for the eye over the blending region. To provide a smooth transition, identical image data from two (or more) different projectors must be superimposed, and the output from each projector must be edge feathered to provide seamless optical mixing of the two source images.
3. Hardware Installation Overview of Edge-Blending Technology • Edge Feathering The overlapping image data in the blend region must be edge-feathered to support a seamless optical blend. The transfer function must be programmable to support blend regions of different widths and adjust to different video characteristics. A typical blend function is illustrated below. Blend Region Image Intensity for Image 1 Image Intensity for Image 2 Figure 3-7.
