Radiation sensitive system
Abstract
Abstract THIS INVENTION RELATES TO A SYSTEM FOR OPERATING A RADIATION SENSITIVE DEVICE SUCH AS A TELEVISION CAMERA TUBE TO DERIVE AN OUTPUT SIGNAL IN A P, 0 SCANNING (PPI) FORMAT. IN ONE ILLUSTRATIVE EMBODIMENT, THIS INVENTION INCLUDES A DOVE PRISM FOR OPTICALLY ROTATING AN IMAGE WHICH IS FOCUSSED ONTO THE PHOTOSENSITIVE PORTION OF THE TELEVISION CAMERA TUBE. THE TELEVISION CAMERA DEVICE IS OPERATED TO SENSE A SINGLE LINE OF THE IMAGE FOCUSSED TEHREON. AS THE IMAGE IS ROTATED PAST THE RADIATION SENSITIVE PORTION OF THE TELEVISION CAMERA TUBE, AN ELECTRICAL SIGNAL IS DERIVED THEREFROM A P, 0 FORMAT. THIS SYSTEM HAS AN IMPORTANT APPLICATION IN USE WITH RADAR SYSTEMS WHERE IT IS DESIRED TO SUPERIMPOSE THE IMAGE OF A MAP ONTO THE DISPLAY SCREEN OF THE RADAR SYSTEM.
