            Appeal No. 96-3640                                                                           
            Application No. 08/184,794                                                                   


            horizontal adjust value indicative of the amount of adjustment needed for                    
            centering the image.  A timing controller 24 is coupled to the image sensor 26               
            and the vertical and horizontal adjust input devices 12 and 14 to generate the               
            image area gate, storage area gate, serial register gate and display timing                  
            signals, and also to determine the timing relationships between the signals in               
            response to the vertical and horizontal adjust values.                                       
                       As illustrated in Figure 2, the image data in the image sensor 26                 
            is transferred to a serial register 36 from image area 32 via storage area 34                
            in response to image and storage area gate signals, and the image data is then               
            serially read from the serial register 36 to a video processor 28 in response                
            to a signal register gate signal.  The image data is then displayed in                       
            response to display timing signals.  The image centering input is                            
            received in the form of the aforementioned vertical and                                      
            horizontal adjust values.  The timing relationship between the                               
            image data transferring step and the displaying step for                                     
            shifting the image in the vertical axis is then altered in                                   
            response to the vertical adjust value.  In response to the                                   
            horizontal adjust value, the timing relationship between the                                 
            step of serially reading image data and the displaying step is                               
            modified for shifting the image in the horizontal axis.                                      



                                                   3
