Peak Detecting Digital Scan Converter
View pageUS Patent:
41677536, Sep 11, 1979
Filed:
Aug 18, 1977
Appl. No.:
5/825529
Inventors:
Edgar T. Lynk - Schenectady NY
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
H04N 718
US Classification:
358140
Abstract:
An ultrasonic multi-sector scanner performs overlapping scans such that echoes are generated by many steered beams. A peak reading digital scan converter has a random access memory with a matrix of memory cell locations corresponding to image pixels. An analog or digital comparator compares the incoming echo amplitude with the stored amplitude at an addressed memory location, and writes the incoming data into that location only when the incoming amplitude is larger. The stored largest echo amplitude data is read out in a raster at TV rates for imaging on a cathode ray tube.
