Abstract

A system for developing horizontal and vertical deflection signals for drawing a vector of predetermined length and angle on the face of a cathode ray tube is disclosed. Variable rate integrators are caused to integrate at rates respectively definitive of the sine and cosine functions of the vector angle for a period of time which is proportional to the length of the vector to develop Y and X deflection signal outputs which collectively define the vector.
