ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An image processing system including a stored program processor especially suited for manipulating two dimensional binary data arrays, each array, for example, representative of an image, for the purposes of measuring basic geometric properties of the arrays, cross-correlating two arrays, and creating new arrays as a function of one or two other arrays. The image processor pre- ferably operates in conjunction with a general purpose central pro- cessor unit (CPU) including a random access memory which provides the image processor with both the image data arrays and program commands defining the particular image process or operations to be performed with respect to the data arrays. The defined image pro- cess normally involves accessing one or two data arrays from se- quential locations in the CPU memory. As the data arrays are being accessed, they are being operated upon to, for example, create a third data array as a function of the first two data arrays, the third data array being stored back into the CPU memory. Concurrently the three arrays can be measured in various manners with the measure- ments also being stored in the CPU memory. Means are provided for concurrently performing an additional major processing function involving correlation between the first and second data arrays to, for example, determine the shape similarity and relative positional offset therebetween. Additionally, the image processor is also concurrently able to analyze or measure the third image formed as function of the first two images.
