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 187 carbons are in contact after striking the arc, so much current flows that there is danger of blowing the fuses or burning out some connection. Be sure that the fuses and wiring are adapted to the current (fig. 3, § 691). § 291 . Illuminating the entire opaque object. — For illuminating opaque objects, Zeiss uses the principle of the search-light. That is, the twro carbons are horizontal, the positive one has its crater facing the concave mirror (fig. 95, 96). This mirror then reflects the light toward the object. Depending upon its position, it can FIG. 104. NEW MODEL CONVERTIBLE BALOPTICON IN POSITION FOR OPAQUE PROJECTION. (Cut loaned by the Bausch & Lomb Optical Co.). In the new (1913) models of projectors by the Bausch & Lomb Optical Company provision is made in each case to place the object in a horizontal position and then to illuminate it either by a mirror (fig. iO5a) or preferably by tilting the radiant and first element of the condenser (fig. 105), so that the light from the lamp is projected directly upon the object. From the object a part of the light extends out through the vertically placed projection objective to the mirror and from the mirror to the screen. The mirror gives correct images on the screen.
