  • Patent number: 8477080
    Abstract: A device for outputting different images on at least two display units includes a control unit for reading image data of the different images from an image memory, for producing a horizontal synchronization signal and for outputting the image data and the horizontal synchronization signal. The device also includes a processing unit for receiving the image data and the horizontal synchronization signal, for producing additional synchronization signals respectively for one of the at least two display units as a function of the synchronization signal provided by the control unit and a clock signal, and for dividing the image data transmitted by the control unit in such a way that the image data of the different images are output to one of the display units.

  • Publication number: 20080284761
    Abstract: An interface and a method for image data transmission that is used for data transmission through a plurality of data lines is described, the correctness of the transmitted data being checked by reference to control data. The checking capability is achieved in that at least one item of control data is transmitted through each data line.

  • Patent number: 7215830
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a device for transforming an object image, e.g., using a rotation and/or scaling, for showing it on a display unit having a matrix-shaped array of target image points. In order to achieve a rapid and exact representation of the rotated object at relatively low expenditure, the present invention provides, for at least a portion of the target image points, determining source image points by an inverse transformation, and comparing the source image points to pre-stored object image points. From this comparison, the target image point data of the target image points are ascertained. Furthermore, a suitable image of such a transformation is created.
