Abstract
When studying sound it is sometimes useful to project the wave-form of electrical or acoustical phenomena on a screen. A rotating mirror in combination with a vibrating mirror and a light source provide a convenient means of showing such waves. The problem of building an instrument for such a purpose is comparatively simple if a small screen is used in a dark chamber. However, when the screen is large enough to be viewed by a dozen or more persons, many difficulties arise. The paper describes how the various parts of the apparatus may be coördinated in order to produce a comparatively bright, clearly defined wave with a small incandescent lamp in a room of average illumination. The vibrator used in the apparatus may be so constructed that its response is either inversely proportional to or independent of the frequency.
