Imaging display apparatus
An imaging display apparatus includes an imaging unit that images a subject at a first frame rate and outputs an imaging signal, an image processing portion that generates an image signal based on the imaging signal, a VRAM that stores the image signal, and a display unit that performs displaying based on the image signal at a second frame rate which is equal to or greater than N (N is a natural number equal to or greater than 2) times the first frame rate. The VRAM stores the image signals for one frame to be displayed by the display unit. The display unit performs displaying N times based on the image signals for one frame.
1. An imaging display apparatus comprising:
an image sensor that images a subject at a first frame rate and outputs an imaging signal;
an image processing circuit that generates an image signal based on the imaging signal;
a display unit that performs displaying based on the image signal at a second frame rate which is equal to or greater than N (N is a natural number equal to or greater than 2) times the first frame rate; and
a timing control circuit that outputs a horizontal synchronizing signal and a vertical synchronizing signal to the display unit,
wherein the display unit starts to perform displaying N times based on the image signal after the image processing circuit generates image signals for predetermined lines that are equivalent to (N−1)/N, and
after displaying is performed N times, in a case where the image signals for predetermined lines that are equivalent to (N−1)/N for one frame to be displayed in one succeeding frame are not generated, outputting the vertical synchronizing signal is delayed until the image signals for predetermined lines are generated.
2. The imaging display apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the timing control circuit outputs a dummy horizontal synchronizing signal while outputting the vertical synchronizing signal is delayed.
3. An imaging display apparatus comprising:
an image sensor that images a subject at a first frame rate and outputs an imaging signal;
an image processing circuit that generates an image signal based on the imaging signal; and
a display unit that performs displaying based on the image signal at a second frame rate which is greater than N (N is a natural number equal to or greater than 2) times the first frame rate by one fps,
wherein the display unit starts to perform displaying the N times based on the image signal before the image sensor completes outputting the imaging signal based on which the image signal is generated.
4. An imaging display comprising:
an image sensor that images a subject at a first frame rate and outputs an imaging signal;
an image processing circuit that generates an image signal based on the imaging signal; and
a display unit that performs displaying based on the image signal at a second frame rate which is equal to or greater than N (N is a natural number equal to or greater than 2) times the first frame rate,
wherein the display unit starts to perform displaying N times based on the image signal after the image processing circuit generates image signals for predetermined lines that are equivalent to (N−1)/N, and
the display unit starts to perform displaying the N times based on the image signal before the image sensor completes outputting the imaging signal based on which the image signal is generated.
5. A method of controlling an imaging display apparatus including an image sensor which images a subject at a first frame rate and outputs an imaging signal, an image processing circuit which generates an image signal based on the imaging signal, and a display unit which performs displaying based on the image signal at a second frame rate which is greater than N (N is a natural number equal to or greater than 2) times the first frame rate by one fps,
wherein the display unit starts to perform displaying the N times based on the image signal before the image sensor completes outputting the imaging signal based on which the image signal is generated.
