  • Patent number: 4801194
    Abstract: A construction for reducing image artifacts in electro-optic imaging apparatus of the kind having (i) a linear array of spaced, selectively activatible, light valve elements having generally equal element widths, (ii), an optical system for forming an image of the light valve at a linear image zone and (iii) a mirror for scan-indexing the array image along said image zone. The spacings between array elements increase progressively from the center to the ends of the array to obviate under or over scan of adjacent image regions.
