Abstract: One of the important factors in determining the quality of either a television or motion-picture image is the ambient light to which the image is subjected and the effect of this light on the reproduced picture. Some of the means which have been employed to minimize the effects of ambient light on picture reproduction are reviewed. A method has been developed which under favorable conditions has produced startling results in permitting the reproduction of both television and motion-picture images under adverse ambient-light conditions. The paper describes this method and gives experimental data illustrating its effectiveness under typical conditions. Some of its limitations are indicated.
