Digital data storage on microfilm - the MILLENIUM project: Hardware realization
Abstract
The MILLENIUM project, funded by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology (BMWi), aims at providing a technological solution for the workflow of digital data storage on microfilm. We describe the hardware chain that is necessary to record and retrieve digital data recorded on microfilm. The laser recorder as well as the film scanning system for reading is pre-sented. Interdependencies between these basic hardware modules are shown guiding to the specifications which are realized in MILLENIUM. Data test recordings with different resolutions of the data on the film are described.
