Title:
OPTICAL IMAGE PROCESSOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS6057317
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
@ An optical processing system based on noncoherent light processing employs both geometrical and diffraction optical systems. One portion of the optical system (25, 26) preforms a subtraction operation of the image from itself where one of the subtracted images is relatively defocused and one is delayed in time from the other. The subtracted image is edge- enhanced (32) and then applied to a spatial filter employing an interferometer (56) in which spatial filters (61, 62) are contained in the interferometer iris plates (59, 60). Additional spatial filtering (72) is performed on the interference image and the processed image is displayed in an appropriate display (78, 81) which can selectively view the processed image, the unprocessed image, or combinations of the two. Light storage elements are employed for storing the processed images in appropriate buffers (23, 24, 64) over a given length of time. The buffers are read out by a flashlamp. Suitable shutters (15, 16, 80, 82) are closed during the readout process.
