Video Input Techniques

In Chapter 4, you entered anatomic data from tissue into the computer by looking directly at a microscope image and passing a cursor over the image. The cursor was mixed with the microscope image by an optical device such as a camera lucida. In Chapter 5, you placed a photograph or drawing of the tissue on a data tablet and passed a cursor, the data tablet cross hairs, over the image. In this case also, the cursor was mixed optically with the image. In both instances, the data that were stored in the computer were a series of coordinate locations of the cursor as it moved about the image.
