Real-time processing system for animation images to be displayed on high definition television systems

摘要

A real-time interactive entertainment device includes a host processor for controlling the operation of the device, a communicating device for receiving object based image data, and a real-time object (RTO) processor connected to the communication device for generating alterable animation image data based upon received object based image data and/or data stored within the device. The real-time object processor generates animation image data at a rate suitable for display in a HDTV system, and generates HDTV signals from the animated image data.
