It does not account for terminal disclaimers, term adjustments, failure to pay maintenance fees, or other factors which might affect the term of a patent.Patent References 3016812 3715480 Method and apparatus for recording in a memory trajectories and traces of objects Apparatus for improving video signal-to-noise ratio Monitoring system for measuring kinematic data of golf balls Video speed analyzer of golf club swing or the like Television system for displaying and recording paths of motion Television system for displaying and recording paths of motion Television system for displaying and recording paths of motion Technique for estimation of displacement and/or velocity of objects in video scenes InventorsAssigneeApplicationNo. 170268 filed on 03/18/1988US Classes:348/579, Strobe (e.g., ball tracker)434/369, Means for displaying article at various stages of manufacture or treatment473/58, Ball path indicator473/101Pin sensorExaminersPrimary: Peng, John K.Attorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassH04N 007/18AbstractAn imaging processing system (10) for displaying a succession of selected separated images of a moving object (62, 64) moving in an otherwise substantially static scene includes an image sensor (12) for generating video signals of the static scene and for generating video signals of the static scene including the object (62, 64) moving therethrough. The video signals are generated over a plurality of frames (80-94). A first memory (104) stores the video signals of at least one of the plurality of frames from the static scene. A second memory (104) stores the video signals of the plurality of frames from the static scene including the object (62, 64) moving therethrough. Structure (106) is provided for comparing on a frame-by-frame basis the video signals stored in the first memory (104) with the video signals stored in the second memory (104) to thereby determine the presence of the object (62, 64) in each of the plurality of frames (80-90). A display (18) illustrates the location of the object (62, 64) in each of the plurality of frames (80-). | |
