Abstract

Abstract In a streak image analyzing device, a belt-shaped region perpendicular to the scanning lines on the scanning rastor of a television camera is set, the video signals only for the belt-shaped region are integrated every scanning line, the integration signals are stored in a memory having memory position, or addresses, provided respectively for the scanning lines, and the signal thus stored are read out to be displayed.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 127 words
A streak image analyzing device which comprises: (a) gate means which is opened after a first predetermined time in an effective horizontal scanning period specified as desired from a horizontal synchronizing signal and is closed after a second predetermined time in said effective horizontal scanning period specified as desired from said horizontal synchronizing signal; (b) integrating means for integrating a video signal obtained by vertically scanning a streak image in the sweeping direction of said streak image for every horizontal scanning time with the aid of said gate means; and (c) memory means having memory positions in correspondence to scanning lines, for successively storing the integration value of said integrating means, so that data stored in said memory means are outputted as relations between time and intensity.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 127 words
A streak image analyzing device which comprises: (a) gate means which is opened after a first predetermined time in an effective horizontal scanning period specified as desired from a horizontal synchronizing signal and is closed after a second predetermined time in said effective horizontal scanning period specified as desired from said horizontal synchronizing signal; (b) integrating means for integrating a video signal obtained by vertically scanning a streak image in the sweeping direction of said streak image for every horizontal scanning time with the aid of said gate means; and (c) memory means having memory positions in correspondence to scanning lines, for successively storing the integration value of said integrating means, so that data stored in said memory means are outputted as relations between time and intensity.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 53 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, which comprises a plurality of systems each of which is made up of said gate means which is opened and closed as specified, said integrating means for performing integration for every horizontal scanning period, and said memory means having memory positions in correspondence to scanning lines.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 40 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, in which a system comprising said gate means which is opened and closed as specified and said integrating means for performing integration for every horizontal scanning period, is used in time division manner.
