GRAPHICAL DATA PROCESSING RESEARCH STUDY AND EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION
Abstract
Consideration is given to translating graphical input data to electrical signals for a pattern recognition system. Resistance network matrices are rejected as cumbersome, expensive, and prone to sneak paths; the possibility of using manifold optical images and masks is explored and shown to be promising. Means of generating images to lie in a single plane are investigated. The optical tunnel is rejected as overly-expensive and the Fly's Eye array of simple lenses shown to be adequate and easily achievable. Two quasi-analog magnetostrictive-drive delay line storage units with nondestructive readouts are described; these units are suitable for use in pattern recognition. (Author)
