Electronic camera apparatus for recording and reproducing moving object images
First Claim
1. A video recording and reproducing apparatus comprising:
- a. a line sensor camera having a line scan image sensor which is scanned along a predetermined standard line and receives an image of a plurality of moving objects passing the standard line and having an image pick-up section having means for picking up the image of at least two moving objects, said sensor having a scan speed set in response to an estimated speed of said objects;
b. first converter means for successively converting a one vertical scanning line output video signal of the line sensor camera into picture element data;
c. storage means for successively storing the picture element data, for a plurality of pictures, supplied from the first converter means;
d. selection means for selecting a desired picture from the plurality of the pictures;
e. read means for successively reading the picture element data corresponding to the selected picture by the selection means from the picture element data for the plurality of the pictures written on the storage means;
f. second converter means for converting the picture element data read by the read means into a video signal; and
g. display means for displaying a continuous picture image of said at least two moving objects moving in accordance with time on said one vertical scanning line video signal supplied to said display means from the second converter means.

Abstract
A video recording and reproducing apparatus comprises a line sensor camera having a line scan image sensor which is scanned along a predetermined standard line and receives an image of a moving object passing the standard line. An output video signal of the line sensor camera is converted by an A/D converter into a series of picture element data which are successively stored into a video memory to form therein a plurality of pictures. A control circuit selects in accordance with selection information supplied from a control box a desired one of the plurality of stored pictures, and reads the picture element data of the desired picture from the video memory. The picture element data thus read from the video memory are successively converted into analog video signals which are supplied through a mixing circuit to a display unit to thereby display the picture on the display unit.
