Advanced Development Model (Feasibility Type) Tactical Page Reader
Abstract
The report describes work done and progress made during the first six months of the design and fabrication of the advanced development model (feasibility type) Tactical Page Reader. Most of the progress was made in the areas of predicted greatest difficulty, where least was known and where it appeared that most development work was needed. Among these areas are self- scanning photodiode arrays and efficient reflectors and light sources to produce sufficient narrow beamed light with low power. Additionally, work has been proceeding with the refinement of general logic methods of driving large MOS memories, efficient power supplies, document drive and control, optical alignment techniques and devices. Furthermore, progress was made in more routine areas such as main frame design and general packaging, and specifying, obtaining and testing new LED arrays.
