Abstract
A commercial vidicon detector, designed for scientific purposes with user-controlled target scanning, was modified to produce a computer-controlled optional composite video signal permitting rapid acquisition of two-dimensional data. A video preamplifier and a processing amplifier were incorporated in the camera head, and a special function card, providing the composite video signals, was inserted into a spare slot of the control unit; minor wiring changes were required to accommodate these modifications. A resolution in excess of 400 lines is obtained in the horizontal direction, and a 10-μ reticle is clearly resolved through a microscope.
