Snell & Wilcox SW2 and SW4 "Zone Plate" Test Chart (also referred to as Snell & Wilcox Test Pattern) were TV test cards introduced in the 1990s and used with NTSC, PAL and SDTV systems. [1] Popular versions of the test charts were made available on Laserdisc and DVD-Video, allowing home users and professionals to test and calibrate their equipment.
In Australia, the Indian-head test pattern was used by TNT-9 in Northern Tasmania in conjunction with the Marconi Resolution Chart No. 1 from its launch in 1962 until it adopted colour television in the mid-1970s. This version eschewed the Indian head drawing with the TNT-9 station ID on top, similar to the aforementioned KRLD-TV, WBAP-TV and ...
Under optical blur from defocus, a Siemens star (like any periodic pattern) gives rise to the phenomenon of spurious resolution [1] [2] above the resolution limit, i.e. toward the center of the Siemens star. (Spurious resolution appears similar to aliasing, but it is a purely optical phenomenon, so it occurs without need of pixels.) This ...
The RMA 1946 Resolution Chart was transmitted by NTS and NOS in the Netherlands, SRG SSR in Switzerland, [18] VRT and RTBF in Belgium, RTP in Portugal, TVP in Poland, TVB in Hong Kong, [citation needed] Venevisión in Venezuela (525-lines variant; in conjunction with Indian-head test pattern), [citation needed] WISN-TV in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (525-lines variant) [19] and on low-powered ...
A 1951 USAF resolution test chart is a microscopic optical resolution test device originally defined by the U.S. Air Force MIL-STD-150A standard of 1951. The design provides numerous small target shapes exhibiting a stepped assortment of precise spatial frequency specimens.
Test cards typically contain a set of patterns to enable television cameras and receivers to be adjusted to show the picture correctly (see SMPTE color bars).Most modern test cards include a set of calibrated color bars which will produce a characteristic pattern of "dot landings" on a vectorscope, allowing chroma and tint to be precisely adjusted between generations of videotape or network feeds.

Experimental broadcasts using the first three prototype versions of the UEIT (one of which was a modification of the Hungarian HTV TR.0782 test card; [9] but all were collectively referred to as UEIT-1) began from the Ostankino Tower transmitter in 1970, with results being used to create the current version of the test pattern.
