Image recording and replay apparatus
First Claim
1. An image recording and replay apparatus comprising:
- input means for sequentially inputting position coordinates from a screen;
recording means for recording in a memory the position coordinates input by the input means, the recording means also recording information relating to the order in which the position coordinates were input; and
image drawing means for performing image drawing by reading out the position coordinates recorded in the memory by the recording means, and sequentially writing on the screen points corresponding to the position coordinates in the order in which the position coordinates were input by the input means.

Abstract
An image recording and replay apparatus can record a line drawing in stages and can reproduce the line drawing in stages so that it appears as if the line drawing is being drawn. A position input device externally takes in position coordinates from a screen. A recording device records the position coordinates taken in by the position input device in a recording medium corresponding to the order they were taken-in. An image drawing device reads out the position coordinates recorded by the recording device and draws an image by sequentially re-writing on the screen points corresponding to the position coordinates in the order in which the position coordinates were taken in by the position input device.
