Image processing system
First Claim
1. An image processing system comprising:
- image detection means for introducing image information of an object to detect image data for indicating at least a density of said object;
scanning table memory means for providing addresses in accordance with horizontal or vertical scanning lines, providing a horizontal or vertical location information for each address, providing a variable window defined by a reference point and a width with respect to the reference point on the basis of the location information and in accordance with said object, and storing said variable window in a single table memory; and
image processing means for forming a desired image on the basis of a logical product of said image data and said window, said scanning table memory means providing said window for the image formed at a next iteration step on the basis of said desired image formed by said image processing means.

Abstract
The invention is directed to an image processing system, which includes an image sensor (DD) for introducing image information of an object to detect image data for indicating at least a density of the object. A scanning table memory (TM) is adapted to provide addresses in accordance with horizontal or vertical scanning lines, and provide a horizontal or vertical location information for each address. Also, the memory (TM) is adapted to provide a window on the basis of the location information and in accordance with the object, and store the window in a table memory. And, an image processor (DP) is adapted to provide a desired image on the basis of a logical product of the image data and the window. The memory (TM) is adapted to provide the window for the image which will be used at the next iteration step on the basis of the desired image formed by the image processor (DP). The memory (TM) may include a window setting unit (WM) which is adapted to set a x-coordinate and a y-coordinate to at least a reference point for each address on the basis of the image data provided for forming the desired image, and set a predetermined width to each reference point to provide the window and store the window in the table memory.
