Abstract
"The character generator is the heart of any cathode ray tube display system. The types of generators in common use are the dot matrix generator, the raster scan generator, and the linear stroke generator. Each of these generators produces symbols whose legibility is somewhat compromised. A curvilinear generator is suggested which provides improved appearance and greater legibility. A prototype unit was constructed and the results are compared with the other generators. The curvilinear generator provides the best character resolution and readability of the generator types discussed"--Abstract, page ii.
