ABSTRACT:
An address detector detects the position of boundary between an object image signal and other signal in an image output signal from an imaging device according to the difference in magnitude therebetween. A shift amount computation unit computes the shift amounts required to display the object at the center of a display screen according to the boundary position. A shift circuit shifts the phases of horizontal and vertical sync signals generated by a sync signal generator according to the shift amounts. A driving pulse generator generates driving pulses to drive the imaging device in response to the shifted horizontal and vertical sync signals. A sync adder adds the sync signals to the output signal of the imaging device and provides the resulting signal as a video output signal.
