Snooperscope
iilied Into
Powerful Weapon
Washington, (Science Serv
ice) The celebrated Army
snooperscope, used to spot the
enemy at night during World
War II and the Korean con
flict, has been modified into
a simple, powerful research
weapon.
In its wartime application,
the snooperscope sends out in
visible infrared rays which
are reflected back into a tube.
The rays pass into an elec
tronic converter which in
turn shoots electrons against
a phosphorescent screen, re
vealing the image of the ene
my troops and equipment.
Ultraviolet Light
The modification allows
scientists to use ultraviolet
light, also invisible to the hu
man eye. to view living hu
man tissues, chemicals and in
dustrial materials in ways it
is otherwise impossible for
them to see.
Although ultraviolet is not
new to research, the device
which has been named "Ul-
trascope" is believed to be
the first providing direct vis
ible focusing in the use of
such rays.
r Developed at the Radio
corporation o f America's
electron tube division, Lan
caster, Pa., the UltrascoDe
has been tested by several
outside researchers, includ
nig Dr. George Z. Williams
of the National Institutes of
Health clinical center near
here.
Dr. Williams told Science
the device could have innu
merable applications in re
search in medicine, chemis
try, physics, biology and in
dustry.
See Human Cells
In the medical field, he
said, the Ultrascope allows
us to see, among other things,
individual chemicals and
structures in human cells and
blood and protein changes
caused by virus infections.
For viewing these same
inings, Dr. Williams now has
a $15,000 television set-up
containing more than 100
electron tubes and housed in
a special laboratory with cool
ing equipment. The Ultra
scope has a single tube, is
kept in a four-cubic-inch box
and costs about $1,500.
The device, according to
Dr. Williams, provides an im
age superior to that of the
complex television. While the
television picture is made of
a series of lines, the picture
in Ultrascope is more like
mat seen m the movies.
