Still picture processing method and/or apparatus

摘要

A method of processing original still picture data representing an original still image and stored in a video memory and storing processed still picture data representing a processed still image in a predetermined location of the video memory comprising the steps of setting an XY orthogonal coordinate system on the video memory, setting a reference line parallel to one of the X and Y axes of the orthogonal coordinate system and passing through a point of intersection of lines, each of which connects corresponding pixels of the original and processed still images, moving multiples the pixel data on a line of the original still image parallel to the reference line and furthest from the reference line to addresses of the video memory forming a line of the processed still image, and repeating the preceding step for pixel data on lines of the still image parallel to the reference line and second furthest from the reference line and succeeding lines, to thereby store the processed still picture data representing the processed still image in the video memory. An apparatus employing this method for processing original still picture data is also provided.
