Abstract:
Color television signal detection apparatus utilizing only two synchronous detectors, the output signals of the two detectors, being combined with each other to derive a third signal of the same type as that provided by the synchronous detectors themselves, each of these signals then being combined with the luminance signal to provide the three desired signals representative of the color components.
Abstract:
Colored light from a scene is spatially encoded onto a photosensitive surface by a striped spatial color encoding filter assembly including first and second superimposed encoding gratings having equal pitch encoding stripes disposed such that the stripes of the respective gratings are at substantially equal and opposite angles measured from a reference line in the plane of the filter. Scanning of the encoded image on the photosensitive surface produces a composite signal including first and second carrier wave components representative of first and second colors and having substantially the same frequency during a scanning interval. The carrier wave components are separated by comb filter apparatus for producing separate color representative signals.
