Abstract

Disclosed is a real size display system comprising a real size display system comprising a photographing unit for photographing an image of a subject, and outputting first image information that includes measurement information of the subject; a flat panel display unit for displaying image and providing information on installed dot size; and an image converter for receiving the first image information, converting the first image information based on the dot size information received from the flat panel display unit, and outputting second image information, to the flat panel display unit.

Claims

1. A real size display system, comprising:

a flat panel display unit for displaying image information and providing information on installed dot size; and

an image converter that receives first image information, converts the first image information into second image information and output the second information to the flat panel display unit,

wherein the first image information includes measurement information, and

wherein the first image information is converted into the second image information based on the dot size information received from the flat panel display unit.

2. The real size display system according to claims 1, wherein the first image information includes magnification, horizontal synchronization signal, vertical synchronization signal, clock and measured distance data.

3. The real size display system according to claims 1, wherein the flat panel display system includes a controller that enables magnification adjustment of the second image, thereby enabling real size display as desired by the user.

4. The real size display system according to claims 1, wherein the image converter extracts an R component, G component, and B component from the first image information, then converts the extracted R, G, B image signals based on dot size information provided from the display unit, and outputs the second image information to the flat panel display unit.

5. A real size display system, comprising:

a photographing unit for photographing an image of a subject, and outputting first image information that includes measurement information of the subject;

a flat panel display unit for displaying image information and providing information on installed dot size; and

an image converter that receives first image information, converts the first image information into second image information and output the second information to the flat panel display unit,

wherein the first image information includes measurement information, and

wherein the first image information is converted into the second image information based on the dot size information received from the flat panel display unit.

6. The real size display system according to claims 5, wherein the first image information includes magnification, horizontal synchronization signal, vertical synchronization signal, clock and measured distance data.

7. The real size display system according to claims 5, wherein the flat panel display system includes a controller that enables magnification adjustment of the second image, thereby enabling real size display as desired by the user.

8. The real size display system according to claims 5, wherein the image converter extracts an R component, G component, and B component from the first image information, then converts the extracted R, G, B image signals based on dot size information provided from the display unit, and outputs the second image information to the flat panel display unit.
