Anti-aliasing interlaced video formats for large kernel convolution

1. Field of the Invention A system and method are disclosed for management of sample data to enable video rate anti-aliasing convolution for interlaced video frames. Sample data may be moved simultaneously from a sample buffer to a bin scanline cache and from the bin scanline cache to an array of Nprocessor-memory units (e.g., 25 for N=5). Pixel data may be convolved from an N×N sample bin array that may be approximately centered on the pixel location. Since each sample bin contains Nsamples, N×Nsamples may be filtered for each pixel (e.g., 400 for N=5 and N=16). Each processor-memory unit convolves the sample data for one sample bin in the N×N sample bin array and supports a variety of filter functions. Pixel data may be output to a real time video data stream.
