Abstract:
A Charge Coupled Device (CCD) camera and a method for controlling the same. When a photographing command is input from the input unit by operation of user, the controller controls the iris drive unit so as to open and close the iris periodically for a preset time. Also, the control reads electric signals accumulated in the CCD imaging unit according to fields by light incident according to the opening of the iris, and then stores the read CCD data in the memory according to fields. Then, each CCD datum read from the CCD imaging unit is stored in the memory in the raw datum state without addition of an adjacent datum. Next, the controller generates a second odd field and a second even field by adding offset values, according to fields, to each CCD signal of the raw data state stored in the memory, and then forms a still image by combining the second odd field and the second even field.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for guaranteeing the integrity of a PCI bus is disclosed. Multiple general purpose computers are connected using the PCI bus, and the PCI bus signals between or among them are compared. The present invention comprises general purpose computers, PCI monitoring cards, and network lines. An apparatus and a method for detecting faults are provided without adopting an exclusive CPU board or input/output bus to detect faults. A PCI monitoring card is appended to each general purpose computer system, and the computer systems are connected to electronic communication media.
