Abstract

PURPOSE:To apply only the emphasis of contour excellently without generating noise by comparing a luminance signal subject to digital signal processing with an adjacent picture element for each picture element so as to detect the contour and adding a contour signal only to the detected contour. CONSTITUTION:A luminance signal separated by a luminance signal/chrominance signal separation circuit 2 is supplied to an A/D converter 3 and stored once in a frame memory 4 after digital signal processing. A contour emphasis signal forming circuit 5 reads a luminance signal data from a frame memory 4 for each picture element and compares it with a luminance signal data of the adjacent picture element, and when a difference of a prescribed value or over exists, and the portion having the difference is used as the contour of the picture and the contour emphasis signal is outputted. A 1st mixing circuit 7 superimposes the contour emphasis signal onto the luminance signal to output the luminance signal whose contour is emphasized and the luminance signal subject to analog signal processing by a D/A converter 8 is mixed with the color signal by a 2nd mixing circuit 9 to form a composite video signal.
