DESIGN DECISIONS
Precision optical viewers provide high resolution over a large subject area. But they
are costly, complex and inflexible when compared to this high-magnification electronic
viewer. It offers rapid, remote-control display and also permits image enhancement.
Zoom Viewer
Display from electronic film viewer shown with both negative and dif-
ferentiator controls energized.
Fig. 1. The Electro-Zoom viewer provides continuously
variable, in-focus system magnification of a 70-mm
transparency between 7 and 150 times. Further step
magnification up to 380 times is possible when viewed
on a 24-in. monitor. The limit of resolution is better
than 50 optical lines per millimeter at magnification
factors of 150 or more. A flying-spot scanner is used
as the image transducer., This relatively old and simple
technique converts a three dimensional scene-X, Y, f
(intensity)-into a two-dimensional (l, t) time sequential
video signal. A lens focuses the raster on the trans-
parency with the photo-multiplier directly behind the
film holder.

A NEW and inexpensive electronic film
viewer simplifies interpretation of aerial
and space-satellite reconnaissance photo-
graphs. The system offers many advantages
over more expensive and complex optical
viewers. Among them are :
Large screen display.
Multiple viewing at remote locations.
High magnification with minimum trans-
mission of energy through the film (par-
ticularly important in satellite photog-
raphy).
Ability to repeatedly view first-gener-
ation film without danger of loss or phys-
ical damage.
Full choice of positive or negative view-
ing.
Real-time video processing.
Availability of image enhancement tech-
niques.
Except for the
scanner tube and power
supplies, the system consists entirely of com-
mercially available television components.
It uses a magnification system that combines
optical minification and shrinking raster
techniques to provide apparent resolution of
up to 50 optical lines per millimeter at mag-
nification of up to 380 diameters.
By packing the relatively few active lines
generated by commercial television into a
small dimension, and by selecting scanner
systems, optics and film with the required
transfer characteristics, it becomes possible
to increase apparent, or usable, resolution by
a big factor.
Looked at in another way, the total num-
ber of active lines remains constant, but the
number of lines in a small increment on the
transparency can be increased by an order of
magnitude.
Electronic `Zoom' Control
Allows Variable Magnification
The viewer provides a relatively smooth
electronic magnification without defocusing.

Viewer is a Westinghouse 5CE P16 cathode-ray tube.
Spectral response of the phosphor is shown here. A
P16 (short persistence) phosphor is used on the scanner
tube-face. The light output from this phosphor decays
to 10 per cent of its initial brightness within 0.15 psec.
Using a shrinking raster technique and normalizing, a
line width of less than 0.00175 in. is measured for the
tube. The beam is electromagnetically deflected and
electrostatically focused. The face plate is optically
flat and non-browning. Final anode voltage is 20 Kv.
cation range is obtained in this manner.
Within this range, the smaller the line width
produced on the scanner tube, the larger the
magnification, and the greater the resolution
available to the viewer.
The zoom control shrinks the raster linear-
ly in, both horizontal and vertical directions
by decreasing the drive to the respective de-
flection yokes. A 3 x 4 aspect ratio is held
within 10 per cent at maximum raster size,
and to better than 3 per cent at minimum
raster size. Horizontal linearity is very good.
The saw-tooth of current through the yoke,
and the resultant linearity on the scanner
tube-face as displayed by a vertical bar pat-
tern, is well within 5 per cent. In the vertical,
the sawtooth of current through the yoke is
linear well within a 5 per cent tolerance. The
shrunken raster can be positioned over the
face of the scanner tube to approximately
?0.5 in. in the horizontal, and ?0.7 in. in
the vertical.
Several fixed stages of magnification, in
addition to the continuously variable zoom
control, are provided, for a total electronic
magnification of 12.
Photomultiplier Is Used
As Light Transducer
An RCA 6199 multiplier phototube is used
as the light transducer. This is a head-on, 10-
stage photomultiplier having an S-11 spec-
tral response (Fig. 3). In a laboratory mock-
up, it was shielded from stray magnetic fields
by two layers of shielding material-Mu-
metal and Conetic. The shielding was tested
by holding a permanent magnet with a
strength of 500 Gauss in contact with the
shield close to the photocathode. Motion of
the magnet had no visual effect on the video
output.
The shield is grounded for additional elec-
trostatic shielding; and sufficient space and
insulation are provided between the shield
and the glass bulb to prevent internal dis-
charge, which creates large noise spikes.
The dark-current signal (no incident light
on the photocathode) of the combination
photomultiplier and preamplifier is less than
0.3 my at the cathode-follower output. Light-
shielding structures minimize stray light
from external sources as well as scattered
light from the scanner tube; this keeps noise
to an acceptable level.
In order to decrease noise in the signal by

rent of the scanner tube was then increased
by a factor of 15 to compensate for the loss

During the reporting period, efforts were directed toward extracting
limited and specific areas of concentration from a vast quantity of publi-
cations on the broad and general subject called "vision." This winnowing
process still leaves numerous areas of interest, so a shotgun approach has
been taken to discuss many of these points. It is hoped that through better
understanding of the psychophysical process of the visual system of the
human observer, the photo interpreter can be aided in his vital task of
reconnaissance and intelligence.

its association with the Armed Forces, it appears that this list could

acuity (and factors which influence acuity), viewing screen "dither," error
keys and the effects of prior knowledge, and display formats. The first

a servomechanism.

3.1 The Visual System as a Servomechanism
The analogy between the human visual system and a photographic or tele-
vision camera has often been made. There are, of course, obvious similar-
ities but the analogy soon breaksdown, More recently, D. H. Fender (Ref. 1)
likens the eye and visual system to a servomechanism which appears to be
a much more accurate description. The eye as a servomechanism acts as a
device that controls variable physical quantities by comparing actual values
with a desired reference value, using differences to adjust the variable.
Continuing the analogy, Fender notes that the cone cells are most
closely packed in the fovea - the region of sharpest vision. For close
examination, the eyes move so that the image falls on the corresponding
areas of the two foveas. Each of the three pair of rotating muscles receives
signals proportional to the displacement of the image from the fovea.
Another control system brings the eyes to the correct angle of convergence,
while still another adjusts the focus by changing the shape (and therefore
the focal length) of the lens. This adjustment in focus - accommodation -
is not "calculated" from the angle of convergence but instead is achieved
by a steady "hunting" mechanism - like focusing a projector lens by hand
until accommodation has been steered to the sharpest focus.
Convergence and accommodation mechanisms are separate but cross-linked.
Information, derived by one is fed to the other, for example, information
in sharpest focus is fed across to the convergence mechanism. Another
feedback mechanism changes the diameter of the pupil and is linked to the
accommodative system because an increase in focal length requires an en-
larged pupil to keep the image brightness constant.
3.2 Visual Acuity
Visual acuity is, strictly speaking, the reciprocal of the visual
angle, a, subtended by the critical detail of a test object, where a is
expressed in minutes of visual angle. As this spatial resolving capacity
increases, that is the ability to discriminate fine detail increases,
acuity, 1/a, increases and the visual angle, a, decreases. The terms
acuity and resolution are generally used interchangeably and involve the
discrimination of two objects versus one. Detection, on the other hand,
involves discerning between one object versus none. A fourth term, recog-
nition, is more closely related to resolution, and involves a more specific
categorization than just detection.

Boynton and Bush (Ref. 2) state that detection occurs when an observer
identifies an object of interest but can't categorize it further. Recog-
nition occurs when an observer identifies an object as belonging to a par-
ticular class of objects or as having particular attributes. This can be
broken down into increasingly specific categories. Recognition implies
prior experience since an observer cannot categorize a completely novel
object. Boynton and Bush indicated that in their experiments they were
unable to obtain evidence of detection without recognition for the types
of targets used. However, in examining, say, an aerial photograph, resolution
of two or more objects can occur without recognition of a specific category.
The limiting angular resolution of a typical human eye is generally
taken to be about 1 minute of arc. This amounts to a linear retinal image
of about 5 microns which corresponds to roughly 10 lines/mm at a reasonably
comfortable viewing distance of about 13 inches. This resolution value is
by no means constant and is in fact a function of a number of variables.
The eye is capable of very high vernier acuity, that is, resolution of the
offset between two straight edges placed end-to-end. For this type of
resolution test, the visual angle can be as small as about 7 seconds of
arc before the offset can no longer be seen. This angle is about one-third
the angular subtense of a single cone receptor. Wires having a subtense
only one-fortieth of a single cone can be detected under ideal circumstances.
3. 2. 1. 1 Luminance
As the luminance level of a target increases, visual acuity also in-
creases. Starting with the absolute threshold, visual acuity increases
and begins to level off when, at the scotopic-photopic (rod-cone) break,
acuity increases again and more or less levels off at about normal room
luminances. It has been noted that contrast discrimination also improves
in much the same fashion as acuity with increasing luminance, and that the
two may be related. While acuity is measured in terms of a spatial thres-
hold, and contrast discrimination in terms of a sensitivity threshold, it
appears that acuity is a special form of luminance discrimination (Ref. 3).
At a given luminance level, the higher the contrast the higher the
acuity. Conversely, as the contrast approaches zero, the separation
between two objects must be increased to be resolved. The minimum contrast

for detection between a target and its background is often taken to be about
2 percent, but again this is only a very rough rule of thumb.
The luminance differences of a ground scene, photographed from high
altitudes, are generally quite small because of the contrast reducing
effects of the atmosphere. These effects can be minimized through the
proper selection of filters to attenuate the bluish veiling glare of atmos-
pherically scattered light, and by selection of film which can be processed
to a relatively high gamma (contrast).
If the spectral characteristics of a target complex and its background
are sufficiently well known, or can be guessed at with reasonable accuracy,
film-filter combinations can sometimes be chosen to provide the photo in-
terpreter a photograph with maximum target contrast. Unfortunately, more
often than not, target signatures are usually only very roughly known and,
except for some experimental situations, the majority of reconnaissance
missions using panchromatic film rely almost exclusively on minus-blue
filters, and these for their reduction of the effects of haze.
The function of edge gradients can be included in a section on contrast.
A number of people (probably starting with Mach in the 19th century) have
observed that perceived contrast is'formed over the boundary of an object,'
(Refs. 4, 5, 6) that is, the spatial-luminance transition connecting adja-
cent areas. If the gradient at the boundary of two different luminance
areas is shallow enough, these differences may not be detectable even if
the contrast is well above threshold. This phenomenon has led to the
development of many optical and electro-optical systems in an effort to
enhance these edge gradients in a photograph.
The human eye apparently performs an edge-enhancement function. The
retinal image of a sharply defined bipartite object field is a more or less
Gaussian distribution of energy. This image spreading is caused by a
number of things, including diffraction by the pupil, spherical and chromatic
aberration, scattered light and eye movements. Still, the edge-gradient
can be perceived as being very sharp. Mach first suggested that this per-
ceptual effect could be described by a second derivative correction applied
to the retinal image, and it is this type of function which is usually per-
formed in optical and electro-optical image-enhancement equipment.
If images are blurred and have significantly reduced edge-gradients,
search time increases,the duration of the visual fixations increases, and
the distance between fixations decreases (Ref. 5). This is an area where,
under some circumstances, contrast and image recognition can be improved

dramatically. Yet, while there are numerous contrast-enhancement devices,
most of them being experimental, it has been pointed out (Ref. 7) that
optical enhancement should probably be left to the interpreter's discretion.
3.2.1.3 Adaptation
Acuity is highest where the fovea is adapted to the level of luminance
of the target. In general, acuity is optimized when the surrounding room
luminance is the same as that of the target (Refs. 8, 9). There is some
degradation when the surround is darker, and even more degradation when the
surround is brighter. As a practical matter for viewing images on a front
or rear-projection screen, room illumination should be somewhat subdued to
prevent stray light from reflecting from the screen, thereby reducing con-
trast.
3.2.1.4 Wavelength
The visual system, when daylight adapted, has maximum sensitivity to
green light at a wavelength of about 555 m4a. The dark adapted eye is most
sensitive to blue-green light near 510 m?. This change in sensitivity
between the photopic and scotopic modes is known as the Purkinje shift.
The optical system of the eye suffers from chromatic aberration, yet
black-and-white objects do not in general appear to be fringed with color.
This may be, partially explained by the sensitivity of the eye which tends
to ignore the fringes which actually do exist in the retinal image.
There is not a great deal of difference in visual acuity over a broad
band of wavelengths, providing the luminance at each wavelength is optimized.
Generally, in viewing images in filtered light, there is so little available
blue light energy, and the sensitivity to blue is so low, that visual acuity
is degraded. Where enough blue light, or red light, for that matter, is
available, acuity is about the same as it is for yellow-green light.
As mentioned in the section on contrast, the retinal image is affected
by diffraction, spherical and chromatic aberration, astigmatism, stray
light, hyperopia and myopia (far-sightedness and near-sightedness). If the
pupil is very small, that is, about 2 mm, diffraction effects in the normal
eye are the limiting factors for acuity. When the pupil is wide open at
7 or 8 mm, the aberration effects contribute most to image degradation.
Optimum acuity occurs when the pupil is about 4 mm in diameter, and gets
worse on each side of this value. The pupil seems to be set, at a given
luminance value, for just the right aperture to give maximum acuity.

There have been numerous attempts to correlate the apparent sharpening
of a diffuse image falling on a relatively coarse mosaic of cones with the
observation that the eyes are constantly in motion. There are low ampli-
tude motions which range from about 30 cps to 7Q cps. On top of this are
slow motions of irregular frequency and extent, coupled with slow drifts
and so-called saccadic jerks at irregular intervals. It can be shown, as
in the section below on "screen dither,"that an image on a coarse mosaic
can indeed be sharpened if the mosaic is moved about. However, in the case
of eye movements. there appears to be increasing evidence that visual
acuity is as good as it is in spite of eye movements, not because of them.
The eye movements tend to keep the image from fading, for the neural system
throughout the body is most sensitive to changes or differences.
it is. by now, fairly well known that an image, which has been pro-
jected onto a coarse surface or viewing screen such as ground glass, can
be sharpened by moving the screen about in the plane of the image. The
coarser the screen, the more dram,4ic the improvement. The image is inte-
grated in time and undergoes a sort of statistical smoothing function which
sharpens the image.
An example of the effects of screen motion is shown in Figure 1. The
top picture is simply an aerial image as seen through a.microscope and
photographed by a camera attached to the eyepiece. The second photograph
was obtained by projecting the resolution target onto a metal capstan roller
and photographing the light scattered from the roller. This photo shows the
grainy structure of the roller, and the reduced resolution. The bottom
photo is similar except that in this case the roller is spinning during
photography. The difference is quite evident.
There are screens, such as the Polacoat LS60G material, available
which are capable of resolving upwards of 60 lines/mm. With this type of
screen, there is little improvement in image quality of high-contrast targets
when the screen is dithered, but there is significant low contrast improve-

mechanism to move a viewing screen for increased resolution, and an abstract

3.4 Error Keys and the Effect of Prior Information on Photo Interpretation
Varous researchers (Refs. 10, 11, 12) have pointed out the importance
of a photo-interpreter's prior knowledge in determining the probability of
detecting or recognizing a particular target. This probability depends, in
part, on his expectancies, that is, if he has been told to expect a certain
target. If an interpreter has been furnished with additional intelligence
he is much more likely to find a particular target. He is also more likely
to "invent" targets, that is, report targets which are not actually there
at all. It has also been shown that there are significant effects due to
the interference of erroneous information. An interpreter who has been
given false information is often seriously hampered in his search and de-
tection capability.
Martinek and Sadacca (Ref. 13)designed "error keys" and "rights keys"
to aid in image identification. The error key was designed to help inter-
preters avoid common misidentifications. This key resulted in a substan-
tial decrease in the numer of errors, with an attendent increase in accuracy,
but no difference in the number of correct identifications. The rights key
was produced by presenting photographs of the same quality and scale, taken
over the same type of terrain, as the photos to be interpreted. This key,
it was reported, had no significant effect on any aspect of performance
measured.
3.5 Display Format and Search Procedure
Work performed by Reilly and Teichner (Ref. 14) indicated that a square
field of view is generally superior to round ones for target detection.
This indeed is fortunate because aerial photography formats are almost
exclusively square or rectangular. Screens in viewers are often made about
20" by 30" or 30" by 30", which provides a single interpreter a fairly com-
fortable viewing field.
If a screen is made too small, concentration of area in the center
increases, durations of fixation increase, interfixation distances decrease,
and overall search efficiency decreases (Ref. 15). Even with so-called
"optimum" screen sizes, however, an interpreter tends to make a quick scan
throughout the field and then spend an increasingly greater amount of time
concentrating on the center.

While this concentration on the central part of the screen may be
partly due to a natural tendency to look more or less straight ahead at a
viewing screen, the fact that the image quality is usually better at the
center of the format may also play a role. The image quality at the edge
of an aerial photograph is almost invariably worse than at the center
because of aberrations in the camera lens. These same afflictions affect
the viewer projection lens with a further loss in image quality. Finally,
screen illumination in the corners is often somewhat lower when viewed from
the center. With these factors affecting the image quality, particularly
toward the edges, it is not particularly surprising that an observer's
attention more or less naturally drifts to a region where he can"see" better.
Fry and Townsend (Ref. 16) found that machine-generated search patterns,
using a ring or outline square, which-give a complete and uniform coverage
are useful primarily when the targets are difficult to find. They also
reported that, under good visibility, free search is much preferred.
Apparently, under these conditions, peripheral vision plays a significant
role and that, on the average, free search represents a faster way of
finding a target. The artifical search patterns may serve as a useful
training aid. however.
Future areas of investigation will include stereoscopy, flicker, color
vision, and fatigue. During the next reporting period, the principal
investigator will attend the SPIE conference in New York on The Human in
the Photo-Optical System."

while

where v1, v2, va are the midfrequencies corresponding to the three

Let us now make the usual assumptions that the optical field is
stationary, so that all the ensemble averages are time independent,
and that there is no second-order coherence between the three
color components, so that the average

After development of the photographic plate this record constitutes
the hologram.
Let us suppose that the amplitude transmission of the plate
at the point (x,y) after development and reversal is proportional
to I(x,y). If the plate is illuminated normally by a 3-color, polar-
ized, plane light beam of the same kind as before, of complex

The complex constants K1, K2, K3 represent transmission coef-
ficients of the hologram for the three primary colors, and probably
do not differ too greatly in absolute value.
As is well-known from the analysis of Leith and Upatnieks,2,3
the terms of the first double summation in Eq. (5) represent plane
waves travelling longitudinally, while those of the second double
summation represent various reconstructions with phase reversal
of the original wavefront, but at an angle to the longitudinal. The
terms of the third double summation in Eq. (5) represent the
genuine reconstruction of the original wavefront at other angles
to the longitudinal, and give rise to the virtual image. In the pres-
ent case 9 such terms are to be considered. The terms obtained by
putting rms correspond to waves of the three primary colors
travelling at an angle a to the longitudinal, which are correctly

modulated by the appropriate amplitude transmission function of
the original object. Provided IK11, 1K21, and IK3I do not differ
too much, these three waves allow the virtual image of the object
to be seen in true color from a direction 0.
The terms obtained by putting rv-1s in the last double summa-
tion of Eq. (5) represent light waves of some color modulated by
the amplitude transmission function of the object corresponding
to a different color. If these waves were superposed on the previ-
ously mentioned ones they would clearly distort the color reproduc-
tion process. Fortunately, however, as can he seen from Eq. (5),
these waves do not propagate at an angle 0 to the longitudinal, but
at angles (vr/p.)B (with r;6s). Thus, if 0 is 30? and if v1, v2, va are
4.6, 5.5, 6.7X 1014 cps, respectively, the angles of propagation are
approximately 21?, 25?, 36?, 44?. Hence, provided the view of the
virtual image is restricted so as to exclude these directions, there
will be no distortion of the color reproduction. In practice the
aperture of observation is restricted in any case, and the foregoing
restriction is not likely to be serious.
It seems then that the hologram technique of Leith and Upat-
nieks should be capable of reproducing images in color, substan-
tially without modification.
I am indebted to R. L. Lamberts of the Eastman Kodak Com-
pany for a number of discussions of the problems of imaging by
the method of wavefront reconstruction.

Reduced Graininess of Moving Screens
DAN MCLACELAN, JR.,* AND HERBERT D. ADAMS
University of Denver, Denver, Colorado
(Revision received 22 July 1965)
IT is well-known that graininess on a screen is equivalent to a
background noise which deters the observer from extracting
a clear impression of an image that is intended to be projected
upon the screen. For example, a beaded screen such as is used for
the home projection of color slides gives sharper images when the
beads are as small as is practical; and a ground glass on a reflex
camera is more effective when the surface is prepared in an expert
way. In a manner not to be discussed here, the clarity of an image
on a grainy screen is a function of the number, site, and distribu-
tion of the grains or scattering points over the surface of ascreen.
On the assumption that the clarity of images on a screen is de-
termined largely by the effective density of scattering points, some
experiments were performed to show that the effective number of
points can be increased by changing the positions of the points

Then two motors were attached to the ground glass at GS; one
moved the screen ' in. horizontally one revolution per minute and
the other moved the glass - in. vertically 12 rpm. The total
length of path traversed by each point on the screen was about
four inches. The resulting picture is shown in Fig. 3.
This experiment suggests that the effectiveness of a viewing
screen can be improved by motion. This might he particularly
useful for fluorescent screens as used for viewing in the electron
microscope or for direct viewing in medical x-ray fluoroscopy. Of
course, for direct viewing the motion would have to be produced
by high-frequency vibration to smooth out the effect for the
human eye.

Optical Transforms
C. A. TAYLOR AND 1-I. 1.3PSON. Cornell University Press,
Ithaca, New York, 1964. Pp. 182. Price $7.50.
The application of. optical transforms to x-ray diffraction
problems is presented, by use of the close analogy between the
diffraction of x rays and the diffraction of light. This book de-
scribes a new research tool for x-ray crystallographers, while illus-
trating Fourier-transform ideas in general through the visual
medium of optical transforms. Two-dimensional models of crystal
structures can be made from holes punched in opaque cards
(masks). The diffraction pattern of an arrangement of holes
representing a single molecule is called the optical transform.
Optical equipment used in diffraction experiments is described,
together with the physical and photographic methods of mask
preparation. The authors discuss the transformation in both di-
rections between real and reciprocal space. The physical principles
of symmetry are illustrated in two dimensions by means of optical
diffraction. Fourier synthesis is described for reconstruction of the
images from the scattered light waves.
The book is profusely illustrated with figures and photographs
which show in detail the use of optical transforms. Fifty-four
plates are collected at the center of the book; the complexity
and beauty of these photographs clearly demonstrates the es-
sentially physical basis of x-ray crystallography. These photo-
graphs should also prove useful to persons engaged in teaching.

jection of images on plates or films on a translucent
screen, for the purpose of enlarging, them properly and,
observing them through transparency, to perform on Them
ip iaggs of measurements which in this way may reach a
high =,-de precision.
It is t icrefore necessary to obtain a considerable defi-
nition of the projected hoot,., joined to an almost uni-
foiin distribution of the luminous intensity of the screen.
it is knovin that the definition of the projected images,
is tile greater, the mote minute the roughness is of the
polish constituting the tr:dnslucent surface on which the
image (screcu) is formed; on the ether hand, however,
the possibility of having the optimum of the above-men-
ticncd uniformity of luminous intensify is the gic?: ter, the
greater within a certain limit, is the roughness of this
surface (diffusing capacity of the screen).
The purpose of this invention is to ensure a good defi-
nition of the projected images, also to maintain a con-
siderable uniformity of the distribution of the intensity
of the illumination of the screen. The description of the
invention may more easily be followed in reference to the
added illustrating design which represents, by way of a
not limited example, it preferred performance. In the
illustration:
FIG. I represents a screen mounted on a frame;
FIG. 2 is it section of the same according to the hatched
plan II-11 of FIG. 1.
Referring to the figures a screen is represented with
such roughness as to ensure a uniform distribution of the
luminosity of the image. Said screen is mounted on
frame 2 on the lower end of which are made two holes
3, while at the upper end two pivots 4 are fitted free to
turn in th,-ir proper seats.
On a supporting plate S the motor 6 is fitted of which
the turnh g shaft is made conjoint, by means of a joint 7,
with shaf . 8 turning in the bearings 9.
in the positions shown in the drawing two endless
screws 10 are keyed on shaft 8 in play with as many
helicuidal wheels 11. The pivots 4 fitted on frame 2 are
clutched in seats 12 eccentrically arranged in the helicoi-
dal wheels 11.
Two pivots 13 are fixed in the holes 3 and made con-

joint wish plate 5. The arrangement of pivots 13 and
the size of the holes 3, taking into account the eccen-
tricity of pivots 4 with respect to the helicoidal wheels
11, are such as to allow the frame 2 and therefore the
5 formation plan of the projected image, a uniform circu-
lar movement of video the trajectory, by virtue of the
flanges of pivots 13, cvt;st:ultly will be on the hirer locat-
ed by the above-mentioned collection plan of the pro-
jected image.
to A cover 14, whilst it protects the mechanical parts in
movenicl)t, prevents the observer from seeing this, so that
the projected image on screen 1 appears to him clear and
perfectly defined. In fact, owning to the movement of
screen 1, the effect of the roughness of the translucent
15 screen, will be of less influence to the clearness of the
image acid therefore the image will turn out to admit the
relief also in the smallest details. Moreover, the con-
siderable grade of roughness which .it was possible to
adopt for iite translucent surface of the screen, will per-

nous intensity almost uniform from the centre to the
riuu'gins of the drawing.
The variations of a constructive character which might
he applied to the described device will fall into the field
25 of protection of the invention every time that the same
inventiv, conception here exposed would be carried out
to reach equal or similar results.
What 1 claim is: -
An o,tical device, comprising a single translucent
80 screen having a rough surface and adapted to receive a
projecteu image, a frame carrying said screen and hav-

portions, two symmetrically disposed pivots mounted in
said upper corner portions, a supporting plate, a motor

motor, i,vo endless screws keyed upon said shaft, two
helicoidal wheels meshing with said screws, each of said
pivots being eccentrically mounted in a separate helicoi-
dal wheel and being; rotatable therewith, said two lower
40 corner portions having circular symmetrically disposed
uniform holes, and two pivots mounted in said plate, the
two last-mentioned pivots engaging the side walls of said

WA20. Granularity of Rear Projection Screens. Vance J. Carpenter,
Bausch & Lomb, Inc., 635 St. Paul Street, Rochester 2, New York.
In the conventional use of a rear-projection screen, as exemplified
by a contour projector, the observer sees a granular structure which is
colored and which moves with the observer's eye. This effect has been
found to be dependent upon the numerical aperture of the projection system,
and it disappears when the N.A. is large. Results of measurements showing
this relationship will be given. A qualitative theory of the cause of
this phenomena will be proposed, and a means of eliminating it will be
suggested.
