Abstract From the Canadian patent

A system for synchronous alignment of cathode ray tube (CRT) (108) rasters (12) by application of time variable rotational driver signals to the CRT rotation coil (14) during the trace of the raster. The system may be implemented by either digital of analog means of measuring and storing cathode ray tube (108) raster distortion data as rotational correction factor. The correction factor data is used by device circuitry to generate and apply the required time variable rotation driver signals to the CRT rotation coil, to , effect the desired CRT raster (107) alignment.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed May 22, 1997. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended May 22, 2017.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 22, 2019.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
