Abstract:
A system is provided for deriving images from a film of film frames, either motionless or continuously and bidirectionally movable at different speeds, and effecting translation between the different film frame speeds and the scanning frequency of a display device whereon the derived images are displayed. A flying spot scanner system is employed wherein a film of film frames is continuously advanced through a film scanning zone, the film frames are detected to provide a pair of vertical scan modification signals, a selector means switches from one to the other of the modification signals in accordance with the positional location of the film frames within the film scanning zone and the retrace period of the vertical scanning signals, and the vertical scan and vertical scan modification signals are combined and applied to the flying spot scanner system to vertically modulate electron beam scanning in accordance with film movement.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a film scanner for the optical scanning of a motion picture film and for the generation of corresponding scanned images. The film scanner has an infrared channel for the optical scanning of at least one perforation hole of the motion picture film in an infrared range and for the generation of corresponding infrared image data. The film scanner furthermore has an evaluation device for the evaluation of the infrared image data with respect to the position of the perforation hole and for the generation of at least one corresponding image position correction signal. The invention further relates to a corresponding method.
