A Flying Spot Scanner System.

Abstract

A flying spot scanner (FSS) system was designed and constructed to digitize color images from 35 mm transparencies. This system features random access operation and can output a maximum of 8 bits of intensity information with a resolution of 20 lines/mm for each of the red, blue and green channels. Each transparency may be digitized into a maximum of 4096 x 4096 points with a cycle time of 200 microsec/point. A flexible software system permits histogram and color triangle distributions to be outputted along with the color intensity, color hue, and color purity information.
