SEEING THROUGH FOG is made possible for pilots by a novel application of television principles. A viewing device slung under the nose of the plane picks up fog-piercing infrared rays which are not visible to the human eye. An iconoscope translates this ghost image into electrical impulses, which are amplified and passed on to a receiving unit where they are converted into a visible image on a fluorescent screen. In addition to removing the hazard of running into a mist-shrouded mountain, the device would assist in landings. Harold A. Adams, of Bakersfield, Calif., is the inventor.
