Abstract
Video signal digitizer for processing scan line information representing image information from a video camera scanning a field of view having multiple images distributed therein. The digitizer defines by number digitizer stripes corresponding to image bright spots along a scan line, it tracks the scan lines by number and records the number of each video frame scan. The digitizer includes: analog process controller; event, scanning, state and queue controllers; event history recording memory; status display; an output queue device; and an I/O port. The digitizer can operate in bright-spot or edge-detection modes, and permits one-pass high resolution image verification, identification and location without edge matching or mosaic processing.
