Günümüzün hızla gelişen teknolojisi sayesinde haberleşme imkânları da büyük oranda değişmiş ve gelişmiştir. Bu hızlı değişim ve gelişme doğal olarak sadece haberleşme imkânlarını değil, aynı zamanda Türkçemizde kullanılan terim ve tanımları da büyük ölçüde değiştirmiş ve ayrıca bilgi ve iletişim teknolojileri alanında kullanılan yabancı kaynaklı terimler hayatımızda çok sık kullanılır hale gelmiştir. “Dilin kaderi, halkın kaderidir” şeklindeki Kırgız atasözünden hareketle, Türkçemizin sadece hazırlanan bu kılavuzla sınırlı kalması amaçlanmamakta aynı zamanda gerek okullarımızda ve gerekse de görsel ve yazılı basında imkânlar ölçüsünde her alanda kullanılması arzulanmaktadır. Bu ilkeden hareketle, günümüzde Türkçemizde yaşanmakta olan bu dil karmaşalığını, en azından bilgi ve iletişim teknolojileri alanında kullanılan terimlerde bir ölçüde azaltabilmek amacıyla BTK bünyesinde bir çalışma yapılmış ve aynı zamanda telekomünikasyon alanında karşılaşılan teknik terimlerin yanında hukuki, ekonomik terimlere de yer verilmiştir. Bu çalışma sonucunda halen kullanılmakta olan ve kullanılması düşünülen yabancı kaynaklı bilgi ve iletişim terimlerinin Türkçe karşılıklarının tanımlanması, yapılacak yazışma ve çalışmalarda ortak dil ve terimlerin kullanılması ve anlam bütünlüğünün sağlanması hedeflenerek Bilgi Teknolojileri

  • A Delay Line for PAL Colour Television Receivers
    1968, No. 8/9 243 A delay line for PAL colour television receivers F. Th. Backers In colour television receivers for the PALd system the colour information is derived from the chrominance signal for each line and from the delayed signalof the preceding line of the field. If colour errors are to be avoided a delay line that gives an extremely accurate phase delay must be used. The subject of the present article is an ultrasonic delay line developedfor this purpose, made from a type of glass specially developed for this delay line.

    Course Presentation Multimedia Systems Video I (Basics of Analog and Digital Video) Mahdi Amiri April 2014 Sharif University of Technology Video Visual Effect of Motion The visual effect of motion is due to biological phenomenons. 1. Persistence of vision An object seen by the human eye remains mapped on the eye’s retina for a brief time after viewing (approximately 25 ms) 2. Phi phenomenon When two light sources are close by and they are illuminated in quick succession, what we see is not two lights but a single light moving between the two points (apparent movement or perceiving movement ) Due to the above two phenomena of our vision system, a discrete sequence of individual pictures can be perceived as a continuous sequence. Page 1 Multimedia Systems, Mahdi Amiri, Video I Video Definition A sequence of still images representing scenes in motion. Frame Rate Number of still images/pictures per unit time Frame N-1 Frames / Second (fps) Frame rate of video ranges from 6 to 8 fps for old mechanical cameras to 120 or more fps for new professional cameras. The minimum frame rate to achieve Time illusion of a moving image is 15 fps.

    Doordarshan, Indian Television Broadcaster - Informative & researched article on Doordarshan, Indian Television Broadcaster Doordarshan, Indian Television Broadcaster Doordarshan is the public television broadcaster of India and a division of Prasar Bharati, a public service broadcaster nominated by the Government of India. Doordarshan, operated by thePrasar Bharati, is a television broadcaster in India and is an undertaking of the Government of India. Due to the transmitters and infrastructural facilities of Doordarshan, it is considered amongst the leading broadcasting organisations throughout the world. Doordarshan successfully completed its 50th year on September 2009. History of Doordarshan Doordarshan started with a tentative telecast on September 1959 from Delhi. The infrastructure at that time was small supported by a temporary studio. Regular transmission commenced on 1965, and formed a part of All India Radio. By 1972, the telecast was expanded to Amritsar and Mumbai. Doordarshan was the only channel available at time and by 1975, it was available in seven cities around the nation. In 1976, it was detached from All India Radio and was fully managed from New Delhi, by two different Director Generals. In 1982, colour television sets became available in country and the speech given by the Prime Minister of that time,Indira Gandhi, was telecast live through out the nation. After this, the 1982 Asian games, Delhi, was also broadcasted by the channel. Early Programmes of Doordarshan Doordarshan gained exceeding popularity during the 1980s with its new and groundbreaking shows that could easily connect with the urban and rural audiences alike. Shows like Hum Log, Yeh Jo Hai Zindagi, Buniyaad, Nukkad, along with the epics like Ramayana andMahabharata were watched by viewers throughout the country.
