V. STRATEGIES OF IMAGE GRABBING SUGGESTED
A. FIELD-BY-FIELD GRABBING on pause mode
* Put VCR on pause -> grab image (field) -> either store image in
the hard disk (w/ compression) or direct digitizing
* Requires time-base corrector & synch pulse generator integrated
VCR to grab a stable video image from the VCR on PAUSE mode
* Ariel System uses similar strategy.
* Time base corrector: a device which strips off the unstable video
synch pulse and adds a new stable one
* Manual field advance
B. FRAME-BY-FRAME GRABBING
* Grab video image frame by frame.
* Split each frame into odd and even field: interpolation is
required for the missing lines.
* Peak System uses this approach.
* Automatic frame advance with computer controllable VCR (RS232
interface) or VCR + video controller board
