First edition
Fairchild Systems was a United States defense contractor. The San Francisco Chronicle described the company as "one of the legendary names of Silicon Valley" and noted that its Bay Area operations were a training ground for the engineers who went on to found Intel and other top semiconductor companies.
The authors write: "Recently, several high resolution, real time electronic photographic systems have appeared,some only in the development stage, but others as actual hardware. Some of these acquire data on a line-by-line basis and, therefore, present new problems of image distortion not encountered in frame type photography. It is the purpose of this study, herein proposed, to examine these problems, simulate their effects and develop techniques for reassembling the data into undistorted imagery.
Mounted on the front of the folder is the address label of Edward Willett who worked as an engineer at Fairchild Systems. Good .
