Abstract
A digital disk recorder is used to record digitized circular video images at the video frame rate. The digital pixel values for each image frame are written onto successive pages of a disk buffer memory (DBM) under video frame timing and are read from memory and written on disk under disk timing. A group of adjacent pixels are written simultaneously and in coincident locations on the several disks under clocks that are derived from disk. A programmable serial-to-parallel converter converts serially recorded pixels of any bit length back to parallel bits of the same number as before they were serialized.
