flying-spot scanner

Photomultipliers are typically used as the detectors in Flying-spot scanners.

Color movies are shown from a flying-spot scanner.

The problem with flying-spot scanners was the difference in frequencies between television field rates and film frame rates.

A flying-spot scanner beam illuminated these subjects.

Historically, flying-spot scanners were also used as primitive live-action studio cameras at the dawn of electronic television, in the 1920s.

However, Vitascan cameras only worked indoors, due to Vitascan being in essence a flying-spot scanner based system.

Ardenne never develops a camera tube, using the CRT instead as a flying-spot scanner to scan slides and film.

Telecines that use a monochrome CRT as the light source can be referred to as flying-spot scanners.

Flying-spot scanner technology was later implemented by DuMont Laboratories for their Vitascan color television system, released in 1956.

Cintel's C-Reality and ITK's Millennium flying-spot scanner are able to do both HD and Data.

In the United Kingdom, Rank Precision Industries was experimenting with the flying-spot scanner (FSS), which inverted the cathode ray tube (CRT) concept of scanning using a television screen.

The images stored on an EVR film were visible frames much like motion picture film, and were read by a flying-spot scanner inside an EVR player to be converted to a video signal to be sent to a television set.
