A University of Munich instructor, Professor Korn, claims to transmit nearly distant conversation and reproductions by sending successive telegraph signals. He envisions thousands of wires, yet demonstrates distances of thousands of miles for photgraphic plate reproduction, using a Nernst lamp and lens within a metal cylinder to convey image impressions.
A detailed account explains Korn's telephotography device. Light variations on a selenium plate control current through a galvanometer, recording flashes on a cylinder film. The system promises near real time photographic transmission from Europe to New York, using submarine cables and a compensator for sharper images. Korn, a Munich professor born in 1870, envisioned press photos drawn from cable transmissions within an hour of events.
Professor Korn has been employed at A for four years, noting roles involving books and tubes.
