Abstract: A gyro torque converter includes an input shaft and an output shaft. The input shaft is fixedly connected to rotate a first drive member. A gimbal is supported by the input shaft. A second drive member is driven by the first drive member. A first shaft is driven by the second drive member. A drive unit is mounted on the first shaft. A second shaft extends from the drive unit. A plurality of gyro members are rotatably mounted on the second shaft.

Abstract: A completely electronic system for recording and subsequently displaying still life pictures includes an optical-electronic transducer for generating electronic signals responsive to an optical image. The signals are stored and subsequently applied to a visual display. Means are provided for applying the signals at a scan rate synchronized with the scan rate of the display to effect a stationary display of the optical image. Preferably, the display is a conventional television set.

Abstract: Light from an object to be imaged is optically divided into two portions. The first portion, preferably corresponding to one primary color, is encoded into a series of electrical pulses by a charge coupled device image sensor. The second portion corresponding to two other primary colors is further filtered by a striped optical filter and encoded into a series of electrical pulses by a second charge coupled device image sensor. The electrical pulses from the first and second image sensors are then time decoded by a decoder circuit to produce three color information signals.
