  • Patent number: 4405218
    Abstract: A shutterless optical system for viewing motion pictures, especially suitable for an 8 mm viewer, is disclosed in which the film moves continuously in a circular path around the optical center of a lens. The motion of the film is compensated by a rotating mirror wheel--a disk or wheel of outward-facing flat mirrored surfaces. The error in one dimension ordinarily resulting from the curvature of the film path is avoided by use of a line light source and a lens between the source and the film.
