Solid-state image storage device
First Claim
1. A solid-state image storage device comprising:
- a photoelectric converter having a plurality of non-destructive readout image sensor cells arranged in one of a line and a matrix for receiving an image;
a scanner for scanning the photoelectric converter to read out image information of the plurality of image sensor cells; and
a recorder having a recording medium for recording the image information read out by the scanner from the plurality of image sensor cells;
wherein the scanner has means so that the operation of reading out the image information of all of the plurality of image sensor cells by the scanner is carried out a plurality of times to obtain a plurality of image informations on the same image formed on the photoelectric converter, and the plurality of image informations thus read out are respectively recorded at different positions on the recording medium of the recorder.

Abstract
A solid-state image storage device employing a recording system which permits easy reproduction of an excellent image even if a relatively low-grade recording medium and recording and reproducing device are used. The solid-state image storage device is provided with a photoelectric converter having a plurality of non-destructive readout image sensor cells arranged in a predetermined form; a scanner for scanning the photoelectric converter to read out image information of the image sensor cells; and a recorder having a recording medium for recording the image information read out by the scanner. An image formed on the photoelectric converter is read out by the scanner a plurality of times and each image information thus read out is recorded at one position on the recording medium of the recorder.

8. A method of recording image information using a solid-state image storage device, comprising:
-
providing a photoelectric converter having a plurality of non-destructive readout image sensor cells arranged in one of a line and a matrix; permitting a light image to shine on the photoelectric converter to form image information in the plurality of non-destructive readout image sensor cells; scanning the photoelectric converter to read out information from the image sensor cells a plurality of times; and recording the information on a recording medium each time the image information is scanned, on a separate portion of the recording medium, so that the image information can be regenerated from a plurality of recorded versions of the image information.
