A novel video camera with an arbitrary aspect ratio was developed using newly developed digital signal processing VLSIs. Programmable VLSI circuits are adaptively controlled by a microcomputer. With the arbitrary aspect ratio of this digital camera, the proposed wide-screen CCD (charge-coupled device) imager could compete with conventional 3:4 imagers.>
