Abstract
A system for analyzing video signals generated by an imaging modality is disclosed. The system includes a video signal input port to which a signal output of the imaging modality being can be connected. Additionally, there is a central processor that includes an analog input module, a signal analysis module, and a data communications module. A plurality of video signal parameters may be measurable from the video signal by the signal analysis module. The system also includes a data output port that is linked to the data communications module of the central processor, which is connectable to an external device for transferring the measure signal parameters thereto.
Claims21
A system for analyzing indeterminate video signals generated by an image source with unknown video signal parameters, the system comprising:
- a signal analysis module that quantifies the unknown video signal parameters from measurements of the indeterminate video signal as a set of display device coordination values, each of the display device coordination values being identified by its respective video signal parameter, a first subset of the display device coordination values defining a set of operational parameters to be configured on an independent display device for a compatible display of the video signals as generated by the image source;
- and
- a data communications module receptive to the display device coordination values generated by the signal analysis module, the data communications module being connectible to an external device to which the set of the display device coordination values are transferred as video signal parameter and corresponding value pairs.
A method for display device management, the method comprising:
- receiving a video signal from an unknown image source, the video signal being defined by a plurality of signal parameters corresponding to display device coordination values;
- quantifying the signal parameters from measurements of the received video signal;
- generating numerical values for the display device coordination values from the quantified signal parameters;
- associating the numerical values for the display device coordination values with an identification of the respective signal parameter;
- and
- transferring the generated numerical values of the display device coordination values and corresponding identification of the respective signal parameters to a display device management system.
