ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method and a device for transmitting images via a transmitting medium, for example, optical fibers, without digitizing images (hereafter called "direct image transmission") and, more particularly, a method and a device for direct image transmission by spectral coding. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method and a device for all optical types of direct image transmission that permits two-dimensional images to be directly transmitted without electrical driving units for scanning or tuning images by distributing light from a point source spectrally so that each pixel in the resulting two-dimensional image corresponds one-to-one with the light having a specific wavelength.
