- The beginning of our diy build of a mechanical scanning TV using the 1938 Scophony mechanical scanning system. The goal is to create a 25 fps colour tv using 2mm wide by 60 lines. hopefully a screen size of 160x120 will be made.
Thanks for watching :) - Věda a technologie
Nice! Looking forward to seeing the next part!
Extremely cool! I have been obsessed with mechanical TV, and the Scophony has to be the lost Ark of the Covenant of mechanical TVs. Please keep going and keep us updated. I can't wait to see a working demo!
Nice video, keep it up, thank you :)
No follow-up on this great project?
Very nice work on the 2 drum monitor ,i am happy you said Scophony as there some differences but it looks to me to be a beautiful build and i will watch with interest
Very interesting. You've been busy!
WOW!!!! I've never seen anyone recreate the Scophony television set before, and this is a pretty good sight! I'm excited for this project to be finished and see how it operates! Great job Robonza!!!! :D :) ;)
Thanks Dylan, I hope we can give you an update soon.
Any progress? I started making a Scophony TV almost 20 years ago, got as far as making the Jeffree cell and horizontal mirror scanner (from a laser printer). Lasers feel like cheating, as you don't need lenses and the real innovation of Scophony was the Jeffree cell synchronised to the horizontal scan. However I did consider simplifying mine using pulse LEDs, i.e. the Jeffree cell would contain a complete line whenever the light was pulsed and then only a vertical scan mirror drum would have been needed.
Unfortunately it didn't happen. I did finish one mechanical TV which was good. Yes, lasers would be cheating but it still would have been a dual scanner which would have been cool.
@@Robonza Shame! Mine stalled due to lack of cylindrical lenses and I moved away.
first 3 seconds, I though this dude was talking through his mind.
how's the project going?
Not enough lines.
1938 Scophony receiver was for 405.
Why not salvage a polygon from a laser scanner?
I thought of that as I have a few but there are not enough faces to do the scan needed.
What became of it?
My interern has gone AWOL but hopefully he comes back. I should be posting a new project if all goes well.
@@Robonza I see. Well, it was an interesting project. Good luck to you.
