DEVELOPMENT OF VISUAL SIMULATION TECHNIQUES FOR ASTRONAUTICAL FLIGHT TRAINING, VOLUME II. IMAGE ASSEMBLY TECHNIQUES FOR VISUAL SIMULATION OF ORBITING FLIGHT.

Abstract

A program was conducted to study techniques for the development of keying signals, to develop a switching amplifier compatible with high resolution television equipment, and to experimentally evaluate the performance of a 1-1/2 inch vidicon camera and a modulated hight beam television projector. The various possible methods for developing a keying signal for matting control of multiple image generation were studied in an effort to determine the best technique for application to the simulation problem. A switching amplifier was developed to fill a gap existing in available high resolution equipment. A new 1-1/2 inch vidicon camera was documented for future applications in the simulation field. A modulated light beam projector was also documented for future reference. (Author)
