Defense is trying to exclude enlargement of drone video that prosecution says shows Kyle pointing his gun at people.
Defense is arguing “added colors,” which of course is what interpolation does. Interpolation is mathematically picking an in between value. The image can be enlarged by enlarging the pixels, everything the same color, then it looks pixelated. Smoothing it out necessitates adding pixels and blending colors.
I think the image may be misleading because of the distance between camera and objects. A view from one direction can’t - flat can’t - reveal with any certatinty the direction of a two dimensional “line” (barrel of the gun). He could be pointing left 10 degrees or right 10 degrees and it looks the same from the side.
prosecutors trying to get “enhanced” drone video into evidence - to show gun angle which cannot be determined from this angle and distance.
helpful explanation, thank you. This prosecutor sure is grasping at straws; he really has no case.
