The apparatus relates to an electronic verification and control system for obtaining an input count of entered bills and an analysis for various entry conditions for the bills and their state of fitness, and further to an automatic separator and inserter for packaging bills in a desired quantity for delivery. The system includes a conveyor for entering the quantity of a block of currency, commonly referred to as a strap, in terms of the number of bills contained within the strap. A detection cir...

The disclosed invention provides the method and apparatus for transforming data, such as low time base parallel channel data produced by thermal imaging type systems, for example, into a second format such as high time base single channel data of the type required by standard television monitors. In accordance with the invention means are provided for storing the applied parallel channel data a set at a time in preselected ones of a plurality of memory devices and for reading out each of the lin...

A system for storing video information at both a slow scan rate and a fast scan rate, and for retrieving video information signals from the stored information at both the slow scan rate and the fast scan rate. A random access memory stores information provided by digital video information signals. An address selector addresses a selected location in the memory. A slow scan counter provides a count at the slow scan rate. The slow scan count is provided to the address selector for indicating the s...

A wide angle strip camera system which, in combination, includes a wide angle lens, having a curved conjugate focal surface, a first image-receiving surface, a first curved exposure slit disposed adjacent the first image-receiving surface; the lens, first image-receiving surface and first exposure slit being so mounted that a first curved strip at a constant preselected field angle in an object field is focused on the first image-receiving surface; a second image-receiving surface; a second curv...

A Scan Converter for use with an Ultrasonic Imaging System is disclosed, which permits the buffering of sweep address and video data with relatively fewer bits of information. In essence, the propogation path of the ultrasonic pulses is resolved into a pair of vectoral components while the propogation path media is defined by successive contiguous body segments which are to be respectively displayed as video picture elements. A series of first signals indicate the crossing of segment boundaries ...

A generalized and modular logic circuit for arithmetic/logical units of a digital computer, adaptable to large scale integration (LSI) manufacturing techniques. Each logic circuit includes combinational logic networks which provide inputs to storage circuitry. The storage circuitry is sequential in operation and employs clocked dc latches. Out-of-phase clock trains are used to control the latches. With each storage circuit, there is provided additional circuitry for providing an input which is i...

A scan converter, used in an imaging system, for inverting the R-.theta. format of stored data into a format compatible with video display. As the video display is scanned horizontally, the .theta. addresses are sequentially addressed by means responsive to the scan position. The switch points thus defined are updated within succeeding video lines in accordance with trigonometric relationships between the video lines and the radial lines. Means responsive to the scanning of a reference video lin...

A non-retroreflective axial scan module has a light source for producing a light beam directed, a scan element disposed receptive of the light beam to provide a scanning light beam, a photodetector for receiving light from the scanning beam reflected by a dataform for producing a signal corresponding thereto and optics for restricting the field of view of the photodetector to the vicinity of a scan line formed by the scanning light beam on the dataform all supported in a housing having a volume ...

A method and apparatus for entering data in a random access memory with a fixed orientation independent of the heading vector of the carrier vehicle. The data remains positionally fixed in the memory and is addressed for readout in a manner to present a heading-up display for all vehicle heading vectors.

A scan interface for an integrated circuit includes a scan clock and a scan mode signal. The scan mode signal is indicative of whether or not scan is active, and may be used by dedicated scan circuitry in integrated circuit. Such circuitry may be inactive if the scan mode indicates that scan is inactive, and active if the scan mode indicates that scan is active. For example, the scan circuitry may not toggle is scan is inactive. The scan circuitry may present a reduced load to functional circuit...
