摘要:
An optical disc playback and display apparatus comprising a playback block for reproducing the optical disc recorded with large quantities of character information or image information, a display block, rectangular in shape, for displaying reproduced character information or image information, and a touch panel input block superimposed on the rectangular display block. The novel constitution eliminates use of a conventionally practiced hardware keyboard, making the apparatus far thinner and therefore more portable as well as enhancing ease of search data input.
摘要:
An optical disk player for simultaneously reading data recorded on different areas of the optical disk is disclosed. The optical disk player provides a plurality of pairs of optical pick-ups and pick-up positioning mechanisms. A rotational speed of the optical disk is controlled according to a synchronization signal obtained from a first pick-up and the first pick-up can read the recorded data by a normal method, however, other pick-ups need to change read rates according to respective linear velocity. Therefore, reading speed changing circuits are provided for each of the optical pick-ups except a first pick-up and they change read rates according to linear velocities of the optical disk at reading positions.

An optical head apparatus is provided with a holographic element composed of the first grid region which splits the light beam emitted from the light source into a plurality of light beams and the second grid region which diffracts the light beams reflected from the data-recording medium on the same plane, and prevents unnecessary signals from mixing themselves into the reproduction signal by varying at least the diffraction direction or the diffraction angle of the light beams in these grid regions.The first grid region has an elliptic aperture to make the .+-. primarily condensed spot beams onto the data-recording medium being extended elliptically to the data-recording direction.The direction of the border of the four photosensitive elements of the photo detector which detects the light beams reflected from the data-recording medium coincides with the direction of the deviation of the condensed spot beams of the reflected light beam, the deviation being caused by the deviation of tracking, the variation of the wave length of the light source and the like.
摘要:
In a reversible memory system, a pulsed laser beam generated from a laser unit is directed to a recording layer formed on a substrate 1. The recording layer essentially consists of a recording medium, for example, an iron-nickel alloy containing iron as a major component and 27 to 30 atomic % of nickel, which undergoes martensite transformation from a low-temperature phase to a high-temperature phase at a predetermined temperature Af and which undergoes a stress-induced transformation at a characteristic temperature Md. When a region of the recording layer is irradiated with the laser beam having a predetermined intensity, the region undergoes a stress-induced transformation so that the region is changed from the high temperature phase to the low temperature phase.
摘要:
A process and an apparatus are specified for recording a digital signal onto a recording carrier (4), in particular a signal for recording in compact disc data format, in which an engraving or cutting stylus (2) is pressed substantially by dead weight alone against the recording carrier (4) and, in operating mode, describes a path which lies beneath the undeformed surface of the recording carrier (4) during an indentation to be engraved and on or above the undistorted surface of the recording carrier (4) between two indentations, the common center of gravity position of the engraving stylus (2) and positioning element (1) connected rigidly to it remaining substantially stable in position.
摘要:
An air cushion-optical data read head that includes an optical pick-up system for reading data stored on the walls of an engraved V-groove disc or record, air means for causing the read head to hover above the surface of the record, and air jet means for guiding the head about the V-groove of the record.
摘要:
A recording apparatus which uses magneto-fluidic material comprising a magnetic multi-stylus head arranged in parallel to oppose a recording plane, a magnet fixed to the multi-stylus head near a tip end thereof, apparatus for supplying magneto-fluidic material to at least one point of the magnet and apparatus for causing the magneto-fluidic material on the multi-stylus to selectively be flung, wherein a plurality of areas of concentration of lines of magnetic force are formed on at least one of outer surfaces of the magnet in order to stabilize the supply of the magneto-fluidic material for the comsumption of the magneto-fluidic material on the multi-stylus head due to the flying of the magneto-fluidic material.
摘要:
A laser beam is directed at the groove of a conventional disc phonograph record as it rotates, creating a reflected interference/diffraction pattern of the groove walls. The magnitude and rate of displacement of the interference/diffraction pattern is sensed and converted into an audio reproduction signal of the original phonograph recording.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for reproducing signals stored on a carrier in the form of undulations corresponding to the signals, the undulations generally being formed in a spiral groove. The undulations on the carrier are moved past a suitable radiation source, such as a light source, and the density of the radiation emanating from the undulations, which is a function of the curvature of the undulation, is detected by a suitable radiation detector after it passes through a suitable slit aperture arranged at a predetermined distance from the carrier surface, so that variations in the density are a function of the undulations. The undulations may be either frequency or phase modulated with respect to the signal and their amplitude can be modified as a function of their recorded wavelength in such a maner that the curved surface portions of the undulations have nearly the same focal length for all occurring wavelengths. The carrier can have at least one recording surface in which is formed a groove having a trapezoidal cross section and having its bottom surface provided with the undulations.

An information record comprises a tape containing the information, which may be audio information, as width modulation of periodic depth variations extending generally across the tape. An information playback unit illuminates the tape and detects the information which is contained in light diffracted by the tape.
