The invention pertains generally to waste management and debris removal, and more particularly to systems and methods for separating and recovering the water and solids from a volume of concrete washout following the washing out of concrete mixer trucks and other concrete mixing and delivery equipment.

Concrete washout separation system

A workstation for processing and producing a video signal comprises a video input system, a video graphics processor, and a video output system. The video input system may comprise a video input module, a first video pipeline, and a second video pipeline. The video output system may comprise a receiver, a video pipeline and a video output module. In addition, the video input system may comprise a video input module having a specific configuration and a video processing module having a connector for coupling the video input module, the specific configuration of the video input module setting the characteristics of the video processing module. The video output system may comprise a video processing module having a connector for coupling a video output module and a video output module having a specific configuration, the specific configuration of the video output module setting the characteristics of the video processing module.

A method and apparatus for producing video signals comprises a receiver for receiving a video signal, a video pipeline for post-processing the received video signal, the video pipeline producing a post-processed video signal, and a video output module for converting the post-processed video signal, the video output module producing a formatted video signal. The video output module may further comprise an ancillary data injector, the injector inserting ancillary data into the post-processed video signal. Also, the video output system may further comprise a generator locking device or the video input module may include a generator locking device.

A method and apparatus for pre-processing video signals comprises a video input module, a first video pipeline, and a second video pipeline. The video input module receives and forwards one or more live video signals, producing a forwarded video signal for each received live video signal. The first video pipeline pre-processes VS, wherein VSis a first stored video signal or one of the forwarded video signals produced in the video input module, producing a first pre-processed video signal. The second video pipeline pre-processes VS, wherein VSis the same video signal being pre-processed in the first video pipeline, one of the other forwarded video signals produced in the video input module, or a second stored video signal, producing a second pre-processed video signal.

A method and apparatus for packing and unpacking pixels using a shift-down register and a shift-up register. In general, the shift-down register and shift-up register have the same bit storage capacity. In addition, the shift-down register and the shift-up register have a bit storage capacity larger in size than the bit storage capacity of the memory device from which the pixels are unpacked, or to which the pixels are packed.

The present invention provides a system and method for converting color data from a higher color resolution to a lower color resolution. Color data is converted by first receiving a plurality of bits representing color data for an image. Next, a subset of pixels represented by the plurality of bits is selected. The color data for each pixel within the selected subset is then divided into least significant bits and most significant bits. Next, the least significant bits for each pixel within the selected subset are compared to a corresponding value in a lookup table. Finally, for each pixel within the selected subset, if the least significant bits are greater than the corresponding value in the lookup table, then the most significant bits are incremented.
