Parametric description of a scan-display system

Abstract

Automatic Pattern Recognition and graphical data processing have recently received considerable attention. In addition to analysis and processing of pictorial information, there is a need for interactive display systems to present both intermediate and final processed data. The subject of graphic display terminals has been extensively discussed in the literature. Scan-display systems oriented towards image processing, however, with particular attention to bypassing the central processing unit for as many tasks as possible have not had comparable development. This paper is focused on this latter area.
