358487000 | Facsimile transparency image scanning | 7 |
20080212149 | IMAGE READING APPARATUS - To set at least the main portion of a read original on an image reading apparatus while avoiding a discontinuous portion, the position of the discontinuous portion of photoelectric conversion element arrays is indicated, or an original holder to be used to set the original while avoiding the discontinuous portion is arranged. | 09-04-2008 |
20080225351 | Pasting apparatus and image forming apparatus - A pasting apparatus includes a pasting member operative to paste a non-transparent medium onto an image-formed surface of a transparent medium; and a conveying member that conveys the non-transparent medium to the pasting member by electrostatic adsorption. | 09-18-2008 |
20090073510 | Passive Transparent Media Adapter - A passive transparent media adapter magnetically coupling to a scan system is disclosed. The transparent media adapter captures light from a concentrated light source in the scan module and transfers the light to backlight transparent media so that it can be imaged by the scanner module. The transparent media adapter has no active electronics or illumination so does not require control or power to operate. The magnetic coupling allows a significant amount of the concentrated light to be focused into a narrow backlight region that moves in sync with the scan module. | 03-19-2009 |
20090135455 | Image processing method of removing flaw and device using the same - An image processing method of removing flaw and a device using the same are provided. The image processing method is used in an image processing device and includes the following steps. Firstly, a transparent manuscript is transparently scanned to obtain a first scanning image. Next, the transparent manuscript is reflectively scanned to obtain a second scanning image. Then, a flaw-positioning image is obtained via the second scanning image. Afterwards, the first scanning image is modified by using the flaw-positioning image according to an image-recovered method for correcting the image value of the pixel in the first scanning image corresponding to at least part of the flaw in the transparent manuscript. | 05-28-2009 |
20100053705 | Methods And Devices For Rasterizing Transparent Pages - A grating-type processing method for a transparent page comprises: scanning the transparent page twice, in the first scanning, taking grammatical interpretation to the page description file of the transparent page, dividing the page into areas, and writing primitive object information and transparent parameters generated into the intermediate file; in the second scanning, reading the primitive objects and the transparent parameters in turns from the intermediate file, and assembling the page dot matrix in each area. A grating-type processing device is also disclosed, which includes a grammatical interpretation unit, a dividing unit, a file memory unit and an assembly unit that processing grammatical interpretation, dividing the page into areas, partitioning the transparent page area and non-transparent page area, and grating-type processing according to the type of page area of the transparent page and the non-transparent page and the primitive object information and the transparent parameters, and assembling the page dot matrix in each area | 03-04-2010 |
20110032584 | SCANNING APPARATUS FOR TRANSPARENT DOCUMENTS - A scanning apparatus for transparent documents includes a scanner which includes a host and a lid pivotally coupled with the host, and a transparent document holding module which is located between the host and the lid, and includes a main body and a light guide element which is located on the periphery of the main body. The host has an optical module for scanning. The optical module includes a plurality of lighting units and a first attraction element. The main body aims to hold a transparent document. The light guide element includes a second attraction element attracted to the first attraction element. When the light guide element is moved with the optical module, the direction of light projecting to the transparent document is altered. Thus when the light guide element is moved with the optical module along a track, scanning of images on the transparent documents can also be accomplished. | 02-10-2011 |
20140118801 | Article Image Annotation System - An article image annotation system including an imager and a transparent sheet discrete from the imager having a first face adapted to engage an imageable surface of an article and a second face adapted to receive annotations and adapted for engagement with the imager to allow imaging of the imageable surface of the article in association with the annotation through the transparent sheet, thereby producing an annotated article image. | 05-01-2014 |
