Abstract: In a method for reading a moving scene previously recorded in the form of successive images, the images are restituted by successive reading frames each corresponding to one image, the frames being intended to follow each other at a predetermined rate corresponding to a nominal speed of displacement of the moving scene. The method essentially consists:in defining an apparent speed at which the moving scene is required to travel,in automatically determining a function which expresses the ratio of the apparent speed V to the nominal speed Vnom by a number of recorded images to be skipped or to be repeated periodically at the time of reading,and in automatically initiating transfer from one image to another at each reading frame by a program which takes said function into account including a fractional portion of the number of images to be skipped or to be repeated at each reading frame.

Abstract: Training in the operation of moving vehicles is provided by an operating station comprising a steering wheel and a television monitor screen placed in front of the trainee driver. Theoretical steering control operations performed by a model driver on a previously recorded moving road landscape are used for producing the images of the road landscape as it moves in front of the trainee driver's control station. Steering errors made by the trainee driver are determined by comparison between the steering control operations performed by the trainee driver and the previously recorded model-driver steering control operations. Displacement of the images with respect to the television monitor screen is produced as a function of the trainee driver' s steering errors.
