FAST COLOUR RASTER GRAPHICS USING AN ARRAY PROCESSOR

Abstract

This paper shows how an array processor technique can be used as the basis of an animated (fast) colour raster display. It is amenable to expansion for more colours, greater speed and resolution, and large scale integration techniques because of the regularity and low interconnectivity of an array. This technique could bring the speed and display file advantages of vector graphics to colour raster graphics at a reasonable price.
