It was originally introduced in 1932 as a 'screen plate' version, similar to the Autochrome process, but in late 1936 Agfa introduced Agfacolor-Neu transparency film. This technique is based on the patent no. 253335 of Dr.
This process involved the use of a screen plate filter, which dyed dots made from potato starch. The Autochrome was the only available color film until Agfa, the German company, introduced a color film in 1932 called the Agfacolor.
