Abstract: A vertical region designation circuit 141 outputs a vertical region designation signal to a vertical driver 103 on the basis of vertical display position information, a vertical synchronization signal and a horizontal synchronization signal. A horizontal region designation circuit 142 outputs a horizontal region designation signal to a horizontal driver 102 on the basis of horizontal display position information, a pixel synchronization signal, a vertical synchronization signal and a horizontal synchronization signal. The horizontal driver 102 outputs an input picture signal to a picture display surface 101 from a signal line at a horizontal coordinate corresponding to the number of times of pixel synchronization signals that is counted from an input horizontal synchronization signal as a starting point during a period when a horizontal region designation signal is effective.

Abstract: Image de/coding unit 801 decodes coded image data and stores the image data on a temporary basis. Image address bus 123 and image data bus 124 connect image de/coding unit 801 and image display section 901. Image display section 901 stores image data like moving images in frame memory 914 which is a preexisting circuit, and displays the images that are for specified areas and that are produced in image de/coding unit 801 and previously produced images stored in frame memory 914 in overlap. By this means, it is possible to reduce the traffic on MPU (Micro Processor Unit) busses and to present large-volume image data such as moving images by relatively simple additions of functions.

Abstract: A decoding section 111 decodes inputted coded data to image data and outputs it to an image data writing section 112 whenever necessary. The decoding section 111 outputs a decode completion notice signal to an image data reading section 114 and control signal generating section 115 every time when outputting a predetermined amount of image data (for example, an amount corresponding to one frame). The image data writing section 112 writes image data to the storing section 113 whenever necessary. An image data reading section 114 operates intermittently with timing when the decode completion notice signal is input thereto, and reads a predetermined amount of image data from the storage section 113. The control signal generating section 115 generates a control signal 206 that instructs a new portion in image data decoded by decoding means.

Abstract: A method for determining motion compensation of an input image based on a motion vector of the input image from this input image to a reference image which has been sampled at a first set time, and the method includes calculating a motion vector of the input image based on a move, at a second set time, of a block unit which is a part of the input image and consists of a plurality of pixels, and calculating a motion vector of the reference image based on a motion, at the first set time, of a block unit which is a part of the reference image and consists of a plurality of pixels. Motion compensation of the input image is calculated both from the motion vector of the input image and from the motion vector of the reference image, to thereby realize a method for determining motion compensation with high precision.

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved termination apparatus for use in making wire harnesses. The apparatus includes: a connector holder for holding connectors in line; a connector holder drive; a punch for termination a selected terminal of a connector onto a selected wire; a wire insertion-and-guide station for inserting and guiding a wire to the termination position, a detector means for detecting arrival of the inserted wire at the termination position and a test pin for establishing a circuit with the inserted wire; and, a control circuit for controlling the connector holder drive. Under operation of the control circuit, a connector in the connector holder is first aligned with the termination punch.

Abstract: A digital video signal decoding apparatus has a memory for storing motion vectors which have been decoded by a decoder, and a motion vector calculating circuit for calculating a presumed motion vector from the motion vectors stored in the memory, whereby, even if part of a bit stream has been lost and each of pixel blocks which have been lost accordingly cannot be decoded, each of the lost pixel blocks is filled in by a corresponding pixel block in a preceeding frame which has been motion-compensated through a motion compensation circuit by using the presumed motion vector, thereby preventing degradation of the picture quality at that pixel block portion.

Abstract: A moving-image signal encoding apparatus is provided in which information to be lost is suppressed to a minimum extent when a cell is lost in a transmission line. A cell assembler divides a bitstream into cells of bits and adds to the cells positional information of encoded words having particular meaning within the cell. When the cells are lost in the transmission line, a decoding is allowed from the encoded words having particular meaning which appears at a first bit of bitstream succeeding to the lost cells.

Abstract: The invention provides a high-efficient coding apparatus for video signal which is intended to control a quantizing step width finely depending on the quality of a inputted image. The coding apparatus is designed to obtain an average value of prediction errors at blocks, each block on which the orthogonal transform is carried out and to define the upper limit of a quantizing step width output from the quantizing step width control circuit depending on the average value. It results in making it possible to finely control the quantizing step width particularly based on each part of the image from a background to a dynamic area.

Abstract: A moving-image signal encoding apparatus includes a transmission buffer memory. A first quantization step size for a normal block other than a refreshed block is determined on the basis of an occupied capacity of the buffer memory. A second quantization step size for the refreshed block is determined on the basis of the first quantization step size. A refreshment instruction signal is generated. One of the first quantization step size and the second quantization step size is selected in response to the refreshment instruction signal.
