ABSTRACT:
A flying spot scanning system is provided by utilizing reflected light from a multifaceted rotating polygon which is then directed to the scanned medium. A light source illuminates a portion of the mirrored sides of the polygon during each scanning cycle, to provide a desired sequence of spot scanning. In each scanning cycle, information is transmitted to the scanned medium by modulating the light from the light source in accordance with a video signal. An optical convolution of elements including at least two lenses having power in one optical plane and substantially no power in the other plane, is provided in combination with the polygon. One of these lenses is placed in the optical path between the polygon and the scanned medium with its power plane substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the polygon for allowing a wide variance in runout tolerance of the scanning system. The other lens is placed in the optical path between the light source and the polygon with its power plane substantially perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the polygon.
