Radar apparatus and the like
First Claim
1. A method for redrawing a sensing image when a range is or has been changed, said method comprising:
- recording said sensing image and outputting said sensing image to a display;
recording additional information displayed upon a screen and outputting said additional information to said display;
computing a new image from said recorded sensing image using an image manipulation computer function, so that said computed image fits a new scale of said changed range, and recording said computed image; and
computing changes to said recorded additional information to adjust said additional information to said new scale of said changed range, and recording said computed additional information.

Abstract
Methods and apparatuses process sensing signals. A method for redrawing a sensing image when a range is or has been changed, according to one aspect of the present invention, records the sensing image and outputs the sensing image to a display; records additional information displayed upon a screen and outputs the additional information to the display; computes a new image from the recorded sensing image using an image manipulation computer function, so that the computed image fits a new scale of the changed range, and recording the computed image; and computes changes to the recorded additional information to adjust the additional information to the new scale of the changed range, and records the computed additional information.

9. A method of displaying a radar image, said method comprising:
-
(a) frequently transferring image data from one area to another area at a predetermined cycle; (b) transferring said image data from said one area to said another area when a radar range is or has been changed, including expanding or shrinking said image data when said radar range is or has been changed; and (c) re-transferring the processed image data back to said one area. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)

13. A radar and like apparatus, said apparatus comprising:
-
at least one frame memory for storing image data and outputting processed image data to a display; and a controller for frequently transferring said image data from one area to another area at a predetermined cycle, wherein said one area is included in said at least one frame memory, when a radar range is or has been changed, transferring said image data from said one area to said another area while expanding or shrinking said image data, based on said changed range, and re-transferring the processed image data back to said one area. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A radar and like apparatus, said apparatus comprising:
-
a frame memory; a video memory; and a controller for frequently transferring image data from said frame memory to said video memory at a predetermined cycle, transferring said image data from said frame memory to said video memory when a radar range is or has been changed, including expanding or shrinking said image data using an image manipulation computer function, when said radar range is or has been changed, and re-transferring the processed image data back to said frame memory. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25)
