DISPLAY AND HARD-COPY DEVICE OPERATING IN CONJUNCTION WITH COMPUTERS OR OTHER INFORMATION SOURCES

摘要

Display/hard-copy device operating in conjunction with a computer or other source of information, comprising means (1) to display the total or partial visual information to be recorded utilizing its intrinsic light or external source of light, a light-shutter (2) controlling the time of exposure or electronic means to perform the same function, an information media (3) for recording the information by means of a photochemical or photoelectric procedure, mechanically operated means (8) to develop the image by applying chemical or physical processes, an illumination sensor (4), control electronics (5), trigger electronics (6) and interface electronics (7) processing the data received from said source of information. The point is that the display (1) placed in the path of the light beam falling on the media (3), the light-shutter (2) and the illumination sensor (4) form a single integrated unit; furthermore every component but the information media (3) and the developing unit (8) are solid state devices.
