1. telephotography
The transmission of pictures by the electric current, the requisite changes in the current being effected by the action of light upon selenium. The picture is projected by a magic lantern. Its projection is traversed by a selenium resistance through which the current passes. This is moved systematically over its entire area, thus constituting the transmitter, and synchronously with the motion of the selenium a contact point at the other end of the line moves systematically over a sheet of chemically prepared paper. The paper, which may be saturated with a solution of potassium ferrocyanide and ammonium nitrate, is stained by the passage of the current, and by the variation in intensity of staining, which variation is due to variations in the current, produced by the effects of the light upon the selenium, the picture is reproduced.
