Abstract
An apparatus for converting an image generation system of a video processor from one form into at least one other form. The image generation system being of the type having a light source emitting a light beam and a rotating light control wheel, such as a color filter wheel, disposed in the path of the light beam. The converting apparatus comprises a mounting member, displaceably connected to a frame to permit reciprocal movement of said mounting member between a plurality of positions; means, coupled to the mounting member, for actuating the mounting member and a wheel assembly, including the control wheel and means for rotating the control wheel. The wheel assembly is rotatably mounted to the mounting member, such that the position of the control wheel, relative to the light source, is determined by the position of the mounting member. Accordingly, when the mounting member is in one position, the rotating control wheel affects the light beam in one way to provide an image generation system of one form, and when the mounting member is in another position, the rotating control wheel affects the light beam in another way to provide an image generation system of another form.
