The Synchro-Screen as a Stage Setting for Motion Picture Presentation

Benjamin Schlanger, William A. Hoffberg, Charles R. Underhill

The Synchro-screen* is described as consisting of a motion picture screen with contiguous reflecting side wings, top and bottom panels. The picture surround surfaces synchronously fluctuate in light intensity and color with the changes in picture light and color adjacent to the reflecting surround areas. There is an appreciable increase in the subtended angles of the luminous field of view of the theater patron. A luminous, maskless stage setting is thus created for the viewing of motion pictures.
