35MM AUTOMATED VIDEO AND DATA STORAGE WITH REMOTE ACCESS DATA RETRIEVAL
Systems and methods convert computer generated data and video into patterns of 0s and 1s for storage as a still image on camera film (e.g., 35 mm film). A system can include a user interface identifying computer generated data for conversion into a still image pattern of 0s and 1s for storage as a still image on a frame of film, a microprocessor programmed to convert the computer generated data into a still image pattern of 0s and 1s, and film imaging hardware for processing the frame of film with the still image pattern as a still image on the frame of film. The data can include at least one of: video data, pictures, text, and diagrams. The frame can be stored in a cartridge, which can contain more than one frame. The cartridge can be stored and retrieved from a multiple cartridge housing including automated storage and reading hardware.
1 . A system enabling storage of computer generated data as a still image on film, comprising:
a user interface-identifying computer generated data for conversion into a still image pattern of 0s and 1s for storage as a still image on a frame of film;
a microprocessor converting the computer generated data into a still image pattern of 0s and 1s; and
film-imaging hardware for processing the frame of film with the still image pattern as an image on the frame of film.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the data can include at least one of: video data, pictures, text, and diagrams.
3 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising a storage cartridge for containing the frame of film therein.
4 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the storage cartridge can be stored with a plurality of other cartridges in a housing.
5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the system can enable the location, retrieval, and reading of frames contained in the storage cartridge.
6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the data can include at least one of video, still image, text, and charts.
7 . The system of claim 6 , wherein video and still images can be obtained with a digital camera.
8 . A method enabling storage of data as a still image on a frame of film, comprising:
identifying data for conversion into a pattern of 0s and 1s;
converting the data into the pattern of 0s and 1s;
storing the patter of 0s and 1s as an still image on a frame of film and placing identifying information on at least one edge of the film; and
storing the still image in a cartridge.
9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the cartridge contains more than one frame.
10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the cartridge can be stored and retrieved from a multiple cartridge housing including automated storage and reading hardware.
11 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the data originate form at least one of a video camera, server, laptop computer, smartphone, and lapel/body camera.
12 . A system enabling storage of computer generated data as a still image on film, comprising:
a user interface-identifying computer generated data for conversion into a still image pattern of 0s and 1s for storage as a still image on a frame of film;
a microprocessor converting the computer generated data into a still image pattern of 0s and 1s;
film-imaging hardware for processing the frame of film with the still image pattern as an image on the frame of film; and
a memory storing the pattern of 0s and 1s as an still image on a frame of film and placing identifying information on at least one edge of the film.
13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the data can include at least one of: video data, pictures, text, and diagrams.
14 . The system of claim 12 , further comprising a storage cartridge for containing the frame of film therein.
15 . The system of claim 14 , wherein the storage cartridge can be stored with a plurality of other cartridges in a housing.
16 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the system can enable the location, retrieval, and reading of frames contained in the storage cartridge.
17 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the data can include at least one of video, still image, text, and charts.
18 . The system of claim 17 , wherein video and still images can be obtained with a digital camera.
19 . The system if claim 17 , wherein the memory is a cartridge.
