FILM WEAVE CORRECTION SYSTEM

摘要

A film correction system adjusts a relative position of film containing an area for information and a scanner of the film area The system includes a scanner for scanning the film area at a film plane. A film drive moves the film along the film plane. A focused beam separate from the film area scanner scans a film edge in the film for determining a location of the film edge. A circuit is coupled to the focused bean scanner for changing a relative position of the film area scanner and the film area. The film edge scanner is a flying spot scanner, and the apparatus includes signal processors for processing the sprocket information. The system may be retrofit to an existing telecine apparatus. A separate coil may be used to provide deflection of a flying spot scanner used to scan the picture information on the film.
