Abstract

A filter display system is provided to improve display operations. Filtering of display information, such as with correlation filters, improves the image and enhances events of interest. High speed filters for filtering on the fly as the image is being refreshed provides improved capability for iteratively and adaptively enhancing an image. Parallel processing channels provide multiple filtering operations simultaneously for improved performance. Iteratively refreshing a display with filtered information as the filtered image is built up permits operator intervention for optimizing filtering operations.
