ABSTRACT:
Apparatus far transmitting information at a data rate, such as for recording an image on a photosensitive surface, including a pulsed light source that produces pulsed light having a pulsed repetition rate and a modulator that asynchronously modulates the pulsed light at the data rate, wherein the data rate is higher than pulse repetition rate.
