Picture pick-up and display system with electronic and printed picture display.

摘要

With electronic and printed picture display an adjustment is required so as to obtain a changed picture quality with the aid of a setting of a picture signal processing circuit subsequent to a picture quality observed. This adjustment is a calibration as it were of the picture signal channel for the picture display. Hereto the system comprises a picture pick-up device (CAM) such as a camera, a picture signal storage device (Dsc) in the form ofa disc, for example, and in a picture signal source (VPC) a playing device (VP) suitable for this disc, coupled to an electronic picture display device (Vmon) or still picture printer (Prt), respectively. During the adjusting operation a reference test pattern signal coming from a generator (Tst) is applied to the picture display device (Vmon) or printer (Prt), respectively, through a picture signal processing circuit (Proc). Subsequently, the pick-up device (CAM) picks up the picture displayed or the picture printed, respectively, and the picture signal obtained thus is stored in a storage device (Dsc). Then, this picture signal and the reference picture signal are compared in a signal comparing circuit (Comp). Adjusting data corresponding with the differences between these signals are stored in a memory (Mem) coupled to the circuit (Proc). Thus, with the electronic and printed picture display a video channel (V) as well as a printing channel (P) are adjusted. The two channels (V and P) are coupled by setting means (Adj. Proc), so that on account of the picture quality observed on the picture display device (Vmon) a changed picture quality of the printed picture of the (Prt) device is available.
