Putting Together the SMPTE Demonstrations of Component-Coded Digital Video San Francisco, 1981

Merrill Weiss, Ron Marconi

Assembling the system needed to stage the SMPTE Demonstrations of Component-Coded Digital Video required building a laboratory-quality television facility in a production environment. The system had to be measured and its transparency proved; then it had to be operated through four days of subjective assessments and system presentations with no chance to make up for lost time. This paper describes the system, the decisions behind its final form, and the results obtained.
