Abstract

See full text

In a method for modifying the resolution of an image obtained by digitising a real image, the digitised image includes a plurality of pixels of a particular intensity. The outlines in the digitised image are studied and isolated and additional pixels are created by interpolation of the intensities of original pixels located on one side of an outline to form an image with a modified resolution. The studying of outlines is achieved by locating, for close pixels, the intensity transitions representative of a gradient exceeding a particular threshold. The method is utilized for modifying the image resolution of facsimile machines.
