Likely no one can process it due its physical form, which required a proprietary disc film processing machine and printer.

The OP is a bit ambiguous at to whether the film is already processd my reading is that the are negatives in a box. But if its not yet processed then youd need a nuetron scanner to digitize the faded latent images. IOW, rotzaruck widdat.

The images tend rize the to be miserable but rapid progress in AI might bring their salvation.


You are right - I could not see any real images with a magnifying glass, I donated them to the garbage. Thanks

Some disc cameras had a decent lens. Many disc cameras had a non-decent plastic lens.
I use a slide duper set up with a very sharp Leica enlarging lens (and a long bellows). I shoot a digital picture of each frame. If the neg is OK -- I can get an OK "scan". Some Topaz and PS work will make an passable small print or scan. If you just want to "know what is on the disc" you can shoot a digital pix of the entire disc against a light source and make it positive in PS. See if it is worth the effort or $$ to get the entire disc and each negative scanned.
