Continuous Non-Intermittent Projectors

Arthur J. Holman

The ideal projector and its product, ideal projection, are defined in terms of the screen image. The particular characteristics which distinguish continuous non-intermittent projection are given. The apparent attitude of the motion picture industry toward improvements in projection and the reasons therefor are presented. Types of variable refraction projection systems are discussed with a view to pointing out the advantages possessed by the revolving lens wheel system. The single lens wheel system is described briefly. The main purpose of the paper is to dispel scepticism regarding the possibilities of non-intermittent projection and to clear the way for scientific investigation of the continuously illuminated non-periodic screen image.
