1. An apparatus intended to store in a digital memory the set of information obtained by comparing by means of a logical operator the information previously stored in the said memory with the information originating from a television camera, said television camera being capable of scanning a picture composed of a plurality of elementary areoles and of supplying at the output in the form of an electric signal an elementary information for each of the said areoles;

  • the aforesaid apparatus comprising, in addition to the said television camera, a device for defining a field within said picture and for establishing a one-to-one correspondence between each elementary areole of said field and one storage location of a memory having at least as many locations as the areoles comprised within said field;

    at least one logical operator having two inputs and one output, whereof one input is connected to the output of said memory and the other input is connected to the television camera through analogic/digital converter and the output is connected to the memory input, the purpose of such arrangement being that of carrying out a logical comparison between the elementary information originating from the individual areoles within the television camera'"'"'s field and the information originating from the corresponding storage location;

    a clock synchronous with the television camera'"'"'s line pulses capable of causing the simultaneous arrival at the input of the aforesaid logical circuit of the elementary information originating from the corresponding storage location and the entering into the said storage location of the signal obtained from the comparison of the said information through the logical circuit.
