1. A method for processing event timing images, comprising steps of: capturing sequential digital two-dimensional images of a scene using an area scan image sensor; and processing the sequential digital two-dimensional images to generate a time delay integration image of an object moving in the scene, the step of processing comprising integrating the sequential digital two-dimensional images to form a time delay integration image of at least a portion of a moving object in the scene by (a) segmenting at least of portion of each of the sequential digital two-dimensional images into input lines, and (b) populating each line of the time delay integration image with an integral over a plurality of the input lines, each of the plurality of the input lines being selected from a different one of the sequential digital two-dimensional images to substantially match movement of the moving object in a direction perpendicular to the input lines.
