Abstract: A dual film strip projector projects images onto at least one screen from a pair of film strips, each of which is advanced in programmed timing independently of the other. The film strips are contained in a cartridge that is readily insertable in the projector, and the timing of the advance of the frames of each film strip is automatically controlled by control signals recorded on a magnetic tape in another cartridge insertable in the projector. The projector includes dual illumination systems, projection lenses and film strip advancing devices. Operation of the projector is entirely automatic in that the control signals on the magnetic tape operate the pair of film strip advancing devices.
