I too am  no Einstein, however, on skimming through the text of the
patent, it appears as though he's trying to create a "hologram" on
film.  He generates two images by using two fiber optic pathways which
are then corrected by lenses and then pointed into the lens by mirrors.

I think the most important phrase is on page 6, second column near the
bottom.  It reads (and I quote)...

>Moreover, by using a Lipmann's projection system it is also possible to 
>make use of a film or plate3 exposed in a camera as described above in

Now, the big question is... What's a Lipmann's projection system?
