Abstract:
An adjustable screen frame assembly composed essentially of tubular members which are rectangular in cross section, the tubular members defining the corners legs, and side parts of the screen frame, the frame assembly including T-shaped sections which are telescopically received in the tubular parts and wedged into multiple point clamping engagement therewith by means of adjustment bolts, the frame forming parts being provided with means for readily attaching a screen or the like thereto.
Abstract:
Methods for making patterns comprising areas different with respect to their light polarizing properties by selective removal of portions of a continuous polarizing film, such as of a dichroic dye, from a carrier therefor to define all or a portion of said areas. Selective removal may be by destructive removal of the dye film from the carrier, or by transfer of portions thereof to a receptor surface.
Abstract:
The production of visible motion patterns in a thin film of a nematic liquid crystal compound by inducing physical movement of the film, the film being formed between support plates at least one of which is transparent or translucent, means being provided to effect movement within the liquid crystal film.
Abstract:
A rear projection screen which is essentially free from scintillation, said screen being composed of two essentially parallel screen surfaces lying in closely spaced apart relation, one of said surfaces comprising a refraction lens system composed of lens defining transparent articles contained in a plastic carrier coating, the other surface of said screen comprising either a second refractive lens system or a light transmissive matte surface which acts as a refractive system, said systems each acting to disperse light passing therethrough at different wave lengths to individually produce scintillation effects, said two systems jointly acting to counterbalance their respective scintillation effects to provide a screen which is essentially free from scintillation.
