We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

CH. VII] PROJECTION OF IMAGES OF OPAQUE OBJECTS 193 The projection objective is of the Tessar Ic series of very large aperture (114 mm., 4T3 in., in diameter and 50 cm. 19^ in. equivalent focus). The focusing is accomplished by a screw which raises or lowers the table supporting the object. This instrument enables one to demonstrate to an audience the workings of a machine like a cash register, or a quarto size page of illustrations or print. With the vertical objective and a mirror to reflect the light to the screen the image will be erect. The reflecting mirror is silvered on the front to avoid the doubling of the image. FIG. 108. MODEL 5 DELINEASCOPE FOR OPAQUE AND LANTERN-SLIDE PROJECTION. (Cut loaned by the Spencer Lens Co.), With the arc lamp and the first element of the condenser in a horizortal position the light extends directly to the right through the lantern slide or other object and the projection objective, or projection microscope, or it ir.ay be reflected upward through the vertical projection microscope (fig. 175). For opaque projection, the arc lamp and first element of the condenser are, by means of the crank, rotated within the lamp-house to the right position to direct the light upon an opaque object in a vertical or in a horizontal position as desired. If the object is in a horizontal position the light from it is reflected to a mirror and from the mirror out through the large projection objective. It will appear correct in the screen image. The vertical object will have the rights and lefts inverted. Objects or surfaces 15x23 cm. (6x9 in.) can be projected with this instrument.
