A data conversion and storage system incorporating a gas discharge panel having a light responsive element for sensing external light. When the panel is illuminated by projecting light onto the panel, the light responsive element combines with the electric field generated by an AC power source to cause selective glow discharges to occur. In this way, the image is converted by the panel to digital form with the glow discharges having a pattern corresponding to the image. After the image is removed, this information is stored until erased and also non-destructive transfer can be made to a readout device. |
