 The DP70 Academy Award
The
DP70 was a remarkable 70mm projector. On Monday April
8, 1963 Fred J Pfeiff, technical manager of the motion picture
equipment department of Norelco (North American Philips),
received the 1962 Class 2 Oscar plaque for:
"The design and engineering of the Norelco Universal 70/35mm
motion picture projector".

 Construction
of the DP70
The
Cinema Department of the Philips works in Eindhoven (Netherlands)
were asked to develop a special projector which had to be
suitable for running 70mm films with magnetic sound tracks and
which after replacement of some easily removable parts could
be made suitable rapidly for the reproduction of 35mm films
with optical sound track and of CinemaScope films with four
magnetic sound tracks. |
