Pyrex allows to mix Python and C data types (type specialization), and compiles it into a C extension for Python.

I adapted/transformed/re-wrote part of the motion estimation routine within my motion-compensated temporal filtering (MCTF) package to Pyrex. It simply computes the sum of absolute difference (SAD) between blocks of two video frames.
