    摘要: A duty cycle based AC power control method reduces objectionable voltage fluctuations at a frequency that causes "flicker" by shifting the frequency of actuations of controlled devices to frequencies significantly greater than and/or less than the flicker sensitive frequency. The frequency of actuations may be redistributed (1) by segmenting the devices to provide approximately equal power requirements per actuation, (2) by providing one-half cycle actuation pulses rather than one cycle actuation pulses, and/or (3) by spacing the actuations evenly over a given time period and forcing the aggregate demand to follow a slowly rising/falling envelope. The result is the minimization of power distribution at the flicker frequency.

    摘要: In system and method for smooth line raster-scan display, a frame buffer containing a high resolution map of information of an image for display is read so as to furnish plural line stored information for each single line of the raster display. Display circuitry of the system receives the plural line stored information and varyingly weights same to furnish such single line Z-axis information (intensity control) for an X-Y display matrix, such as a CRT display terminal. Means are included in the system for display of the entire frame buffer content on a first fractional basis, e.g., a two thousand line resolution buffer to five hundred line raster. Selection circuitry of the system provides for reading out only a fraction of the frame buffer content, e.g., one-fourth or the five hundred lines thereof, on five hundred raster lines, thus providing true resolution zoom capability.

    摘要: A color processing system is provided that specifies color in a standardized, perceptually uniform color space and resolves color differences between input and/or output devices. The color processing system utilizes a color mapping techniques to adjust the results of color mapping to fit the color gamut of the output device. The color processing system may be implemented as a color rendering dictionary in a PostScript.RTM. Level 2 interpreter. An additional feature involves adaptation of PostScript.RTM. Level 1 applications to take advantage of the improved color processing system and PostScript.RTM. Level 2 flexibility.

    摘要: A high performance graphics display system for use as an engineering workstation includes a compact method of generating vectors and transmitting addresses for same from a picture processor to frame buffer control circuitry for writing or reading pixel values along the vector in the frame buffer. The system uses a multiplexed address/data bus. Off-screen memory in communication with the picture processor is used to store pixel data read along vectors in the frame buffer preceding writing a vector so that the original data can be restored when the written vector is moved or removed. Vectors are encoded by the picture processor as a first word containing the address of the beginning point of the vector and major axis and X and Y direction bits to indicate the vector's direction. A second word includes a minor axis bit, indicating whether the next pixel to be written or read is on or off the major axis, in the direction indicated for such axis in the first word. The first word also includes a hesitate bit indicating whether the first pixel of a vector is to be written or read. The system is configured in pipe stages with a FIFO at each stage controlled by a hold signal that is pipelined from downstream stages in a direction opposite the pipelined data flow.

    摘要: A method and apparatus are disclosed for representing and displaying the true (actual) color of an image in an index color system. The user specifies the number of color levels necessary to represent the range of displayable colors, and specifies the color (the red, green, blue primary color values) desired for an image. From the specified number, the apparatus calculates RGB (red, green, blue) color values, and stores them in memory in a manner suitable for referencing by an index type address. From the specified color, the apparatus calculates an index suitable for referencing the desired RGB color values from the stored color values. The apparatus comprises a keyboard and a port to a host computer for inputting index color data and true color data, a processing means coupled to the keyboard and/or host computer for producing index-type data from true color data, a memory means for storing the input data and data produced by the processing means, and a display means for displaying stored data.

    摘要: Method and apparatus for drawing vectors on limited precision display devices in amounts of time approximately proportional to the vector's geometric length. Vectors are drawn by a series of strokes. Each stroke is a series of counter control signals, each signal representing a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal movement of the CRT electron beam between adjacent addressable screen points. The counter control signals making up the strokes are stored on a look-up table.
