Patent EP-1179801-A3 (EP)
Inventor: WALLEY THOMAS MICHAEL
IPC: H04N7/18
Filed: 2001-03-30
Abstract: A method and system of imaging an object. First, movement information of the object is
determined by using a navigation sensor array (410) and a navigation engine (420). Based on the
movement information, an imaging sensor strobe signal (444) is selectively asserted to control an
imaging sensor array. In response to an asserted imaging sensor strobe signal, the imaging sensor
array (204) captures sub-images of the object. The imaging sensor array has a plurality of pixels
for imaging a portion of the object at one time. The plurality of sub-images are captured
successively by the imaging sensor array as the object moves with respect to the imaging sensor
array. Then, a composite image of the object is generated based on the captured sub-images.

cassette 100 on the basis of the recording information on the video data and
generates index-related images on the basis of the read out video data. Then,
it generates a retrieval-serving image to be used for retrieving the video data
recorded in the video cassette 100, said retrieval-serving image containing the
index-related images and the recording information of the video data
corresponding to the index-related images, and conserves the retrieval-serving
image data at least in internal memory 8 or in external memory 110.
Thereafter, it displays the retrieval-serving image conserved in the internal
memory 8 or the external memory 110 on image display section 5. As one of
the index-related images contained in the retrieval-serving image that is
displayed on the image display section 5 is selected, it retrieves the
