DEFINITION

Classification: 356/444

With scanning, sweeping, or moving detector over film:

(under subclass 443) Subject matter wherein directed light transmitted through the sheet, strip, or other translucent solid medium is moved in a predetermined manner either by electronic means or by mechanically moving optical means; or wherein the sheet, strip, or other solid medium is moved past the light source; or wherein the photoelectric means is moved selectively about the surface of the film sheet, strip, or medium in order to obtain the intensity of the light transmitted at a plurality of locations through the film sheet, strip, or other solid medium.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

386, and 387, for width detection and measurement of indeterminate length webs where one or a plurality of detection units are involved, and where mechanical or electronic motivated light beams may be transmitted through or reflected from a solid medium into the detection units.

429+, for apparatus which monitors moving webs of the translucent, transparent, or opaque type.
