These characteristics make magnetic recordings but a temporary memorial. The biggest encumbrance of all is that a television monitor is necessary for this format to be appreciated by more that one person at a time.įurthermore, the magnetic recording tape itself can be accidentally erased by a magnetic field and begins to "print through" and deteriorate after just a few years. Although the video camera did replace many home movie cameras, video cameras and cassettes are too bulky, awkward, tempermental, expensive, and confusing to be considered convenient for the average user. With the introduction of home video cameras, many thought still photography would soon be a thing of the past. The need for this enhancement is quite evident by the popularity of home video as a recording format. These memories quickly fade, and rarely do we remember feelings, emotions, or thoughts from the experiences - just the occasion.Ī visual image reinforced with sound from the occasion will greatly enhance the photograph's features of documentation, story telling, and memory stimulation. ![]() MEMORY STIMULATION means that if one can remember who is in the picture, or where they were when it was taken, they're doing pretty well. More accurately the adage is: "people tells stories, occasionally aided by visual images". ![]() The adage that "every picture tells a story" is not completely accurate. STORY TELLING consists of someone remembering what is in the photo, and explaining to someone else what they are seeing. In using photographs, the documentation is only as strong as the memories supporting them. Because we are not aware of any means by which to improve this, we often settle for vague memories as adequate documentation. Automatic exposure setting, automatic flash, automatic film advance, and more specialized films all aid in this improvement.Īlthough these have improved visual images, very little has been accomplished to improve the ability of images to better satisfy their basic purposes or end results, which are as follows:ĭOCUMENTATION: Millions of photographs each year depict events or situations that quickly turn into vague or nonexistent memories. Much has been done since the introduction of still photos to improve the visual image. The primary purposes of this visual preservation are documentation, story telling, and memory stimulation. Heretofore still cameras were designed and are used primarily to capture and preserve visual images. Sound captured from each photographic opportunity is conveniently captured, and efficiently and permanently stored on the film itself. ![]() This invention relates to snapshot or still film photography, specifically to the inclusion of sound with still photographs. This static field monitoring facilitates the selection of specific photographs and their respective audio segment, when the user touches a specific photograph, thereby interrupting that field. A processor which isolates and monitors a static electrical field surrounding the photographs in the receptacle. A receptacle (139) provides storage of multiple photographs and instant access to audio and visual information stored. A reading device (110) accesses and makes audible the recorded audio from photographs. The film camera captures and stores sound in a digital binary form then imprints this binary code onto film in the form of black and transparent bars adjacent the actual negative light image. This system utilizes the film, processing, and printing currently available to the consumer or amateur photographer. The audio recording is accomplished without substantial intrusion into the photographic image. This audio recording is accomplished with light, immediately or at any time prior to taking the next photograph. A film camera for recording visual images is adapted to record sound accompanying a photographic event onto the film section used for the visual image of such event.
