ABSTRACT:
A still frame image processor is disclosed. The still frame image processor comprises two frame memories, either of which can digitize and store a frame of video. A first image, stored in the first memory, can be shrunk by an integer factor M and placed at an arbitrary location in the second memory, so that the first memory is free to capture a second image. A video keying operation combines the outputs, from the two memories to enable the first shrunken image to appear as an inset in the second image so that a new multi-image display is composed.
