Abstract
A video processing apparatus uses multiple image signal integration and reduction for decreasing noise. A television camera picks up an image of a still object and outputs image signals repetitively. An adder adds each newly outputted signal to the sum of previously outputted image signals stored in a memory and stores each new sum of image signals in the memory. A circuit divides each new sum of image signals by the number of times the adder has performed additions, thereby providing a signal that is displayed on a monitor.
