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.

242 V. K. ZWORYKIN provided to rotate the deflection yoke about the tube axis. This motor is controlled by pulses from an auxiliary guiding star, normally located near the periphery of the scanning pattern, on the horizontal line through the guiding star image. The circuit arrangement for this system is indicated in Fig. 16. TRANSMITTER Fig. 16. Block diagram of image stabilizer. We have mentioned a few ways in which television pickup tubes may perform a service in the field of astronomy. There are without doubt many other ways whose discovery demands familiarity with both the problems of astronomy and the possibilities and limitations of electronic equipment. Experience has shown consistently that material progress in any one field of science and engineering has had a beneficent effect on the development of all other fields. The development of electronic pickup tubes with sensitivities of the same order as that of the human eye should be no exception.
