Abstract: 755,813. Printing colour stereoscopic images on to colour lenticular film and optical system therefor. KODAK, Ltd. Nov. 30,1954 [Nov. 30, 1953], No. 34620/54. Classes 97 (1) and 98 (2). To avoid production of unsharp images in an emulsion layer or layers of multilayer film furthest from the exposing light as result of sharp focusing by the lenticules in a nearer layer only, a filter having a clear central portion and outer linear bands absorbing light to which the lower layers are sensitive is inserted into the exposing system. As shown in Fig. 4, light from source 20 is projected by condenser 21 through stereo separation 22, which may be either left or right eye separation on multilayer colour film, to be focused by objectives 23, 24 on to light-sensitive multilayer lenticular film 25; and filter 27 having a lower opaque portion (which would be placed uppermost in printing the other stereo separation), clear central portion 30, green outermost bands 28, and yellow bands 29 permits, as in Fig. 3, full width printing by green rays 31 on the top green sensitive emulsion layer 11, narrower printing by red rays 32 which do not pass green filter bands 28 on to red-sensitive layer 12, and still narrower printing by blue rays 33 which pass neither filterbands on to a highly blue-sensitive layer 13. The emulsion layers may then be colour developed as by the methods of Specifications 507,841 or 541,589. Undesired spreading of the separation images may be further compensated for by (1) stepping down vertically the polarizing filter used to print the left- and right-eye stereo separations each under one half of the area of a lenticule or using a polarizing filter for three separations under each lenticule; (2) making the filter bands 28, 29 furthest from the optical axis wider than the other two. A compensating neutral density may be provided in the central portion 30 of the filter.
