Abstract
A digital scan converter which comprises modular video processing units and modular memory and output units is adapted for processing applied sensor data of various formats so as to provide output data suitable for display on a common indicator. Parameters for processing operations, such as analog-to-digital converting, integrating and detecting, are implemented by the video processing modules in response to digital 'set-up' and address words applied from a programmed microprocessor controller. The storage and readout format of the memory and output modules is also controlled by 'set-up' and address words applied from the programmed controller.
