Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
86 words
An integral cathode ray tube lens system suitable for use in a projection television system comprising: a cathode ray tube having an electron gun for providing a visual display on a substantially rectangular, spherical, and concave-shaped viewing portion; and an optically matched resin adapted to the contour of and affixed to said viewing portion, said resin formed to have a substantially rectangular, spherical, and convex-shaped viewing portion and providing a double concave compensating lens system whereby a visual image is focused on a substantially planar surface.
