Electronic Compensation for Color Film Processing Errors

C. B. B. Wood, J. R. Sanders, F. A. Griffiths

The color accuracy of many existing motion-picture films has been found to be inadequate for color television broadcasting. The causes of error in color rendering have been investigated and a means has been devised to permit electrical correction during the television scanning process (Provisional British Patent Application No. 32529/64). Differential adjustments of the color-separation signals are used to compensate for the errors in any particular film.
