Abstract
Abstract A presentation display apparatus including a data storage section for storing a plurality of explanative image data each having (R), (G) and (B) color image components, a data processing section for adding, to the explanative image data from the data storage section, function select image data different in color component from the explanative image data, an image memory for storing the image data of one screen image output from the data processing section, a listener's first display device for displaying the image data which is delivered from image memory and a speaker's second display device. The image data output from the image memory is supplied through a first color converter to the listener's display device and through a second color converter to the speaker's display device. In the first color converter, the explanative image data is alone directly delivered as conversion image data in spite of function select menu image data, so that only the explanative (R)/(G)/(B) image is displayed on the listener's display device. In the second converter, the (R)/(G)/(B) input data are directly output as conversion image data when the function select image data is "0" and otherwise converted to all "1" when the function select menu image is "1" so that the function select menu and (R)/(G)/(B) explanative image are overlappingly displayed on the second display device.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 19
Claim 1
Independent Claim
130 words
A presentation display apparatus comprising: image memory means for storing image data of one screen image, the image data having color image data of color components; image synthesizing means connected to said image memory means, for synthesizing the color image data of color components read out from said image memory means by first and second syntheszing processes which differ from each other thereby to form first and second image data, the first synthesizing process causing all the color image data of color components stored in said memory means to be synthesized and the second synthesizing process causing part of the color image data of color components stored therein to be synthesized; first display means for displaying the first image data; and second display means for displaying the second image data.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
130 words
A presentation display apparatus comprising: image memory means for storing image data of one screen image, the image data having color image data of color components; image synthesizing means connected to said image memory means, for synthesizing the color image data of color components read out from said image memory means by first and second syntheszing processes which differ from each other thereby to form first and second image data, the first synthesizing process causing all the color image data of color components stored in said memory means to be synthesized and the second synthesizing process causing part of the color image data of color components stored therein to be synthesized; first display means for displaying the first image data; and second display means for displaying the second image data.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words

Claim 4
Dependent Claim
46 words
A presentation display apparatus according to claim 2, in which said image synthesizing means comprises memory means for storing said first and second image data at an address designated by the color image data and for enabling said first and second image data to be rewritten.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
210 words
A presentation display apparatus according to claim 1, in which said image memory means comprises memory means for storing respective image data of said one screen image for every n color components (where n is any positive integer not less than two); said image synthesizing means comprises first color conversion means responsive to said image data of n color components for eliminating the image data of a single specific color component and for delivering the other image data of (n-1) color components as first image data and second color conversion means responsive to said image data of n color components, when the image data of said single specific color component is first level, for eliminating said image data of said single specific color component and for delivering the other image data of (n-1) color components and, when the image data of said single specific color component is second level, for converting all bits of the other image data of (n-1) color components to significant bits and for delivering a converted image data of (n-1) color components as second image data: and said display means comprises color display means responsive to said image data of (n-1) color components to display said first and second image data in respective color display screens.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
97 words
A presentation display apparatus comprising: image memory means for storing color image data of one screen image including listener's image data of a plurality of color components and speaker's image data of a single color; first signal generating means for synthesizing said plurality of color components read out from said image memory means as first image data; second signal generating means for synthesizing said single color component image and said plurality of color component images read out from said image memory means as second image data; and display means for displaying said first and second image data.
