Abstract: An apparatus for inputting, compressing, memorizing
and regenerating continually-changing tone pictures or color
pictures, which allows us to store the image data by a small amount
of memory, to output the regenerating picture in a short time and
to enlarge the picture in any size with keeping its quality. The
apparatus proceeds the inputting steps of reading-in a
continually-changing picture, dividing the picture into a plurality
of regions of the pixels having similar tones within a width 2W,
reckoning an average tone of every region, producing an
average-tone picture by painting every region with the average
tone, extracting boundaries dividing neighboring regions
artificially, seeking branch points and turning points on the
boundaries, approximating the coordinates (x,y) of subboundaries
terminated at the branch points or the turning points by
single-variable spline functions by the biorthonormal function
method till the errors become smaller than a critical value,
memorizing coefficients of the approximation functions as boundary
data, making a differential image by subtracting the average-tone
image from the input image, approximating the differential tone 
image by two-variable spline functions by the biorthonormal method
till the errors become smaller than a critical value, and memorizing
the coefficients of the approximation functions. In the case of a
color picture, the input picture is resolved into three or four
primary color pictures.

seconds, a pseudo user input event of mouse displacement
is generated. Accordingly, the time counter of a screen
saver is cleared before the predetermined time when the
screen saver image starts to be displayed has elapsed,
thereby it is possible to prevent the screen saver image
from being displayed during executing the TV conference
application program.

integrating four sensor units 52, 54, 56 and 58 together.
Each sensor unit is capacitively coupled to a plurality of
corresponding pads so that a signal can be independently
obtained from each sensor unit. By selecting a pad 36b of a
pad section 36 and a sensor unit 54 and providing a
predetermined signal between them to inspect the continuity,
it can be determined whether a printed pattern 34x is open-circuited
between a pad 38b and a pad 38x. This invention
enables the continuity of complicated or irregular printed
patterns to be inspected accurately and inexpensively.
