This selective literature review is one of a series intended to improve interchange of informa- tion among those engaged in research and development in the fields of the computer and informa- tion sciences. Considered in this volume are the specific areas of overall system design considerations, including the problems of requirements analysis, system networking, terminal design, character sets, programming languages, and advanced hardware developments. Names and descriptions of specific proprietary devices and equipment have been included for the convenience of the reader, but completeness in this respect is recognized to be impossible. Certain important developments have remained proprietary or have not been reported in the open literature; thus major contributors to key developments in the field may have been omitted. The omission of any method or device does not necessarily imply that it is considered unsuit- able or unsatisfactory, nor does inclusion of descriptive material on commercially available instru- ments, products, programs, or processes constitute endorsement.

  • John Logie Baird and Television (Part 3)
    John Logie Baird and Television (Part 3) By Gerald Pratley Fall 1997 Issue of KINEMA MZTV: THE MUSEUM OF TELEVISION (Part 3 - Conclusion) In the large and lively offices and studios of CityTV, Much Music & Bravo! New style Arts Channel withinthe CHUM City building in downtown Toronto, three suites have been converted into a repository for television sets of all makes and models dating back to television’s inception in the mid-1920s. This is the MZTV Museum of Television which has evolved from the personal collection of Moses Znaimer, the Canadian broadcaster and media innovator. The Museum is a non-profit entity without government funding and will eventually beopen daily to the public. Presently, scholars, students, writers and others in the world of arts and entertainment may visit the museum by appointment. The purpose of the Museum is to save and preserve the 70-year technological history of the TV receiver by spanning the evolution of television from the mechanical scanning discs of the 1920s to the solid-state electronics of the 1970s. By collecting, documenting and interpreting television sets and related ephemera, Znaimer’s intention is to further public understanding of the impact and influence of a medium of communi- cation which is powerful, persuasive and omnipresent. The Museum intends to be a live and living institution telling the story of television by involving the public in the MZTV oral history project in which people relate memories of early TV and what it meant to them, what they have learned from it, and, among the younger generation, what television means to them in its present form.

  • Shadow Mask Crt Pdf
    Shadow mask crt pdf Continue In Shadow Mask CRT, tiny holes in the metal plate separate colored phosphorus in the layer behind the front glass of the screen. The holes are placed so that the electrons from each of the three cathode tube guns reach only the corresponding phosphorus on the display. All three beams pass through the same holes in the mask, but the angle of approach at each gun is different. The distance between the holes, the distance between the phosphorus and the placement of the guns are arranged so that, for example, the blue cannon has only an unobstructed path to blue phosphorus. Red, green and blue phosphorus for each pixel are usually arranged in a triangular form (sometimes called triad). All early color TVs and most computer monitors, past and present, use shadow mask technology. Traditionally, shadow masks have been made of materials, temperature fluctuations cause expansion and contract to the point affecting performance. The energy that the shadow mask absorbs from the electronic cannon in normal operation, causes it to heat up and expand, leading to blurred or discolored (see dome-shaped) images. The mask of the brewed shadow consists of a nickel-iron alloy in a brew. Therefore it expands and contracts much less than other materials in response to temperature changes. This property allows displays made with this technology to provide a clearer and more accurate picture. It also reduces the amount of long-term stress and damage to the shadow masks, which can be the result of re-expansion/contract cycles, thereby increasing the life expectancy of the display.
