| Interlaced |
This is a method for producing an
image on a computer screen or television. Interlacing displays the picture by
creating two fields for every frame. The two fields are comprised of odd number
lines of the image and then the even number lines. To the human eye, the
display seems to be complete. Interlacing can produce a certain amount of
flickering that is not found in progressive scanning, which is the other type
of image display. Interlace is used for most standard definition TVs. High
definition televisions displays can be either interlaced or progressive. Interlacing
is denoted by the “i” in terms like 1080i and 720i.
