Slow-Motion Recorder for Television Pictures

H. Hiwatashi, E. Mio, T. Kitagawa

An arrangement with a standard camera has been devised to televise sporting events having fast action and to broadcast these in slow motion, with very little delay. Successive fields, at 60/sec, are recorded as separate frames on 16mm film which is developed in a rapid processor, then broadcast as standard film. The speed ratio is 2.5: 1, and the delay 1.5 min. A film storage allows 14 min of showing time (5.6 min original scene time).
