A view of a small section of an optical scan of the broken cylinder. The missing section is visible but the rest can still be played back, something not possible with traditional playback. The Left half of the image shows a small portion of the cylinder. The right half of the image is a zoomed in view of the data inside the small yellow rectangle on the left.
Cylinder 20.2. is shown here on a white cone custom built to provide support for cylinders that are broken. The cylinder is missing a shard from the bottom but the white cone will still support it and allow it to be scanned.
