Thermal Contact Duplication of Videotape

William B. Hendershot

A high-speed contact duplicator, capable of making video copies from a standard master tape, using chromium dioxide (CrO2) has been developed. A computer program was prepared to investigate the basic characteristics of several thermal duplication systems employing CrO2 tape and laboratory equipment was built to show the feasibility of a dynamic thermal duplication system.
