Hazeltine contributed the principle of 'constant luminance' to the NTSC color system, and they also came up with another method called 'shunt brightness' or 'bypassed brightness', all of which have to do with the ratios and values of the RGB components making up the luminance signal.
I have looked for years but have never been able to find any reading material
on these methods.
If anyone can direct me to a book or other source from Hazeltine about this topic, I would greatly appreciate it.
I am also curious about the demise of Hazeltine Research.
All I have read is that the company went under because of the extremely high costs of damages resulting from legal actions against them.
What was all this about?
