Electronic Graphics in Television — The Next Step

This article describes a significant development in graphics systems for television. The system — a state-of-the-art manufacture — allows the creation of three-dimensional, real-time, anti-aliased, animated displays especially for use in television production. The high-performance, microprogrammed bit-slice processor of the system provides 2-D and 3-D transformations with hidden-surface elimination, shading, and viewing window clipping, and also operates in non-real-time to create images of unlimited complexity.
