title: A prototype digital ionographic imaging system.
abstract: A prototype digital ionographic imaging system is described. The process involves direct electrical reading of a latent electrostatic image which has been produced by an ionographic technique. The main design features of the system are outlined and their effect on its imaging performance highlighted. A preliminary assessment of the performance of the system in terms of resolution, noise, contrast and sensitivity is presented and compared with that of a conventional screen-film combination.
