ABSTRACT:
A synchronizing circuit is disclosed which enables a desired phenomena to occur, such as the discharge of a flash illuminating means at a precise point along the path of travel of an article irrespective of the speed of the article in that path.
The circuit utilizes two spaced sensors upstream of the precise point. The sensors are operable to detect the passage of the article and each sensor is connected to respective counter. When sensor detects the passage of the article it starts its respective counter counting in one direction at one particular counting rate. When the second sensor detects the passage of the article it causes its respective counter to count in the opposite direction from the value of the count in the first count at a different but faster counting rate. The circuit includes gate means which determine when the count has returned to a predetermined count to then cause said phenomena to occur.
