Abstract: A new, revolutionary approach to image processing is disclosed. Using simple logic circuit elements a real time same scan video marking circuit is disclosed which is adaptable to a variety of purposes. The invention can be advantageously used as part of an integrated photogrammetric video measurement system. Using such a system, areas or distances or other graphically detectable characteristics can be displayed on a color television set for purposes of analysis and measurement. Moving pictures, made at ground locations or from an aircraft and collected in television form on a video cassette recorder, can be displayed on the television monitor and measurements of area or of distance made electronically. For the study and analysis of hard copy images, i.e. still photographs, aerial maps, x-rays and the like, an auxiliary system camera can be used which projects the picture onto the television monitor.
