Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to a method and a device for generating line rasters in an infra-red imaging system (IR-imaging system) comprising an IR-camera and an image representation unit; the IR-camera being provided with a frame scanning unit comprising a frame trigger unit; and with the line scanning unit comprising a line trigger unit, and the line trigger frequency being determined by using the rotational speed of the line scanning unit as a reference signal for the rotational speed of the frame scanning unit.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
108 words
A device for the generation of a signal to synchronize a frame sweep with a mechanical frame scanning device comprising a line scanning device responsive to a reference signal to maintain a speed in accordance therewith, said line scanning device producing a line synchronizing signal in accordance with the speed thereof, a frame scanning device responsive to said line synchronizing signal to control the speed thereof, said frame scanning device producing a frame speed signal responsive to the speed of said frame scanning device, and frequency dividing means responsive to said line scanning device, and periodically reset by said frame speed signal, for providing a frame synchronizing signal.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
108 words
A device for the generation of a signal to synchronize a frame sweep with a mechanical frame scanning device comprising a line scanning device responsive to a reference signal to maintain a speed in accordance therewith, said line scanning device producing a line synchronizing signal in accordance with the speed thereof, a frame scanning device responsive to said line synchronizing signal to control the speed thereof, said frame scanning device producing a frame speed signal responsive to the speed of said frame scanning device, and frequency dividing means responsive to said line scanning device, and periodically reset by said frame speed signal, for providing a frame synchronizing signal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
A device in accordance with claim 1, including an image representation unit responsive to said frame synchronizing signal and said line synchronizing signal.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words
A device in accordance with claim 1 wherein said line scanning device produces a line speed signal responsive to the speed thereof, said divider receiving as an input said line speed signal.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
33 words
A device in accordance with claim 1 wherein said line scanning device includes a rotational disc, sensing means for sensing rotational speed of said disc, said sensing means producing said line synchronizing signal.
