| Line doubler | A line doubler is a device used to de-interlace video signals prior to display. It is usually an accessory to high end home entertainment systems, especially in the context of home cinema, though most display devices now have equivalent functionality built-in. A line doubler may also perform other tasks such as sharpening the image, doubling the frame rate, or scaling to a higher resolution, and a device that performs all these functions is often known instead as a scaler.
