The Philips Laboratories (Briarcliff, NY) ATV scheme, comprised of two separate systems, HDMAC-60, a single, satellite-deliverable channel designed to get the signal to broadcast stations and CATV head-ends, and HDNTSC, a twochannel (receiver-compatible plus augmentation) system to deliver it to home TVs.
Industry:Software
The most common audible noise component in audio recording, stemming from a combination of circuit and tape noise. Several noise reduction systems are available, such as Dolby™, DBX, DNR (Dynamic Noise Reduction), DNL (Dynamic Noise Limiter), to help alleviate such problems.
Industry:Software
The three numbers are hue, saturation, and value. The solid is a cone. Also called HSI.
Industry:Software
A single disc containing files for both a Windows PC and a Macintosh. See CD-ROM.
Industry:Software
A mode in which the video raster is scanned over the face of the CRT by the electron gun, tracing alternate scan lines in successive refresh cycles. The quality of interlaced video is lower than sequentially scanned (non-interlaced) video because only half of the lines are refreshed at a time and interlaced video scans at a lower rate than non-interlaced video allowing for the manufacture of less expensive video monitors. NTSC video (standard TV) uses interlace video. A display system where the even scan lines are refreshed in one vertical cycle (field), and the odd scan lines are refreshed in another vertical cycle. The advantage is that the bandwidth is roughly half that required for a non-interlaced system of the same resolution. This results in less costly hardware. It also may make it possible to display a resolution that would otherwise be impossible on given hardware, The disadvantage of an interlaced system is flicker, especially when displaying objects that are only a single scan line high.
Industry:Software
The basic transmission channel of an ATV channel using an augmentation channel.
Industry:Software
Broadcast equipment manufacturer involved in a number of ATV schemes, including production of HDEP equipment to the SMPTE standard and schemes involving the use of a line doubler either before or after transmission.
Industry:Software
Address decoding technique that uses the most significant address bits to directly enable devices in the system.
Industry:Software
For an optical mouse, this is the rectangular, metallic surface that reads the movements of the mouse. For a mechanical mouse, this is a clean, soft rectangular surface that makes the mouse’s track ball roll efficiently.
