Color Television from Transparent Film — Theory and Practice

C. N. Kurtz, F. C. Eisen, G. C. Higgins

A system for recording color scenes using an ordinary camera with specially prepared monochrome film and a method for television projection are described. During camera exposure, the three color components of a scene modulate separate carrier gratings already present in each of three color-sensitized layers as preexposed latent images. After simple black-and-white processing, a clear transparency is produced, and a color television picture is obtained using a simple scanning system containing a flying-spot scanner and three photopickups.
