Picture Display unit, picture display system, and moving picture retrieving system

摘要

A picture display unit for moving picture retrieval based on multi-scene reproduction. The picture display unit comprises a picture reducing section for reducing picture data, a picture combining section for combining the reduced picture data to produce a combined picture, a picture displaying section for displaying the combined picture, and a simultaneous multi-scene reproducing section for taking the charge of reproduction of picture data. The picture reducing section reduces the picture data in units of frames to be reproduced, and the picture combining section combines the reduced picture data belonging to the same frames of the picture data, and the simultaneous multi-scene reproducing section reproduces this combined picture. This arrangement allows the effective use of the computer rescue and the improvement of the moving picture retrieval efficiency. <IMAGE>
