Abstract
Abstract A make-up simulator wherein all necessary operations can be executed in accordance with menus on a display picture and various delicate graphic image processing functions essentially required for a make-up are incorporated. In the make-up simulator, a face of an object person is digitized as a graphic image of a high quality using a color TV camera and then the graphic image thus inputted is processed is various ways including revisions and changes and combinations of colors based on the procedure of an actual make-up and then outputted to a color monitor TV set and/or a color hard copy device. The make-up simulator comprises a graphic image memory and a graphic image memory controller for controlling the graphic image memory, and a co-ordinate input device such as a tablet and a pressure sensitive stylus pen for inputting co-ordinates of a working location and a working condition of a graphic image of a face. A graphic image processing circuit executes required processings of a graphic image and controls the color monitor TV set.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
249 words
A make-up simulator, comprising a color image pickup device for converting an original graphic image of a face of an object person into input video signals, a color display unit for reproducing worked output video signals as a worked graphic image of a face, a video signal input/output module connected to said color image pickup device and said color display unit for converting input video signals into dot data and for converting worked dot data into output video signals, a graphic image memory connected to said video signal input/output module by way of a dot data bus for storing dot data therein, a graphic image memory controller connected to said graphic image memory by way of a memory bus for controlling reading out of and writing into said graphic image memory, a co-ordinate input device for inputting co-ordinates of a working location and a working condition of a graphic image of a face, and a graphic image processing circuit coupled to said graphic image memory controller and said co-ordinate input device by way of a system bus for receiving dot data from said graphic image memory controller in response to inputted working location co-ordinates, selectively executing a working of painting, brushing, chalking, washing, copying, mixing or erasing of dot data in accordance with the inputted working condition and then delivering dot data thus worked to said graphic image memory controller and for controlling indication on said display unit of a location of co-ordinates inputted from said co-ordinate input device.
