20100013934 | SYSTEM FOR IMAGE ACQUISITION - A system for image acquisition for acquiring images includes at least two optical devices for acquiring images, each optical device including a respective linear camera suitable for acquiring images from at least one object passing on a transporting plane, at least one lighting device associated with each of the at least two cameras and suitable for lighting the said object in regions of the object from which the images may be acquired, the lighting devices light the object with light pulses, the light pulses being synchronized so that light generated by the at least one lighting device associated with a camera does not interfere with the acquisition of another of the at least two cameras, the cameras acquiring the images only when the respective at least one lighting device is active. | 01-21-2010 |
20130307977 | METHOD FOR IMAGE ACQUISITION - A method for image acquisition of an object in transit on a movable supporting surface includes detecting a presence signal of the object in a preset position, and at least one dimension and/or position signals, the signals being generated by at least one sensor arranged upstream of a linear camera; detecting a “trigger event” signal, generated on the basis of the presence signal, the linear camera starting to acquire an image on the basis of the “trigger event” signal; starting to acquire an image of the object, when the object has travelled a preset distance from the preset position, the distance being calculated by an advance sensor suitable for generating a signal comprising an electric pulse at each preset movement of the movable supporting surface; and setting a mode for image acquisition of the linear camera on the basis of a resolution of the advance sensor. | 11-21-2013 |
20140367468 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR RECORDING IMAGES OF SURFACES OF MOVING OBJECTS WITH REDUCED DISTORTION - A method of capturing an image on a surface of an object by line sensor(s), wherein consecutive line images are taken from a plurality of surfaces or surface portions having a different inclination to a given reference plane with a predetermined frequency during a relative movement of the object with regard to the line sensor(s) and a two-dimensional first image of the surfaces or surface portions is formed from these line images, includes resampling the two-dimensional first image so as to reduce the surface resolution of an image or of images of one or more surfaces or surface portions with regard to a direction oblique to the direction of the lines corresponding to consecutive line images taken by a line sensor in such a way that differences in the surface resolution of images of surfaces or surface portions with different inclination to the reference plane are reduced or eliminated. | 12-18-2014 |
