Abstract: An image input device is disclosed including an image source which generates an image light and a light sensor facing the image source. The image light is divided into a number of components by an image dividing device. The light sensor contains a number of photoelectric converting elements, the number of photoelectric converting elements being smaller than the number of components constituting the image light. The image dividing device is placed between the light sensor and the image source to divide the image light into components in a predetermined timed order. The photoelectric converting elements are thereby irradiated in the predetermined timed order and the electrical signals generated by these photoelectric elements are read out in this same predetermined timed order and stored in a memory.

Abstract: A method for illuminating printing plates in which the light from a light source is imaged on a two-dimensional light modulator having a plurality of rows of light-modulated cells, and the light is modulated thereby, whereupon the light modulator is imaged on light-sensitive material via an imaging beam path, wherein the light-sensitive material is moved relative to the light modulator substantially perpendicularly to the direction of the rows of light-modulated cells at a relative speed and wherein the data pattern to be imaged on the light-sensitive material is displayed beginning in the first row of the light modulator in each row consecutively during an exposure time (T, T′) and then moved to the subsequent row of the light modulator. In order to improve the method, the image of the data pattern is held substantially stationary relative to the light-sensitive material during the exposure time (T, T′).

Abstract: The length of the process from capturing an image by an optical reading unit to discharging the medium is shortened, and throughput improved. A media transportation mechanism conveys a medium to be scanned. An optical reader disposed to the medium transportation path optically reads the conveyed medium. A storage unit stores the captured image. A transmission unit reads and transmits the captured image stored in the storage unit to another device. A discharge control unit discharges the medium while the captured image is being transmitted to the other device after the optical reader finishes scanning the medium.

Abstract: Techniques for scanning an object that does not fit upon a scan surface of a scanner and requires a non-linear scanning path are described. In one embodiment, a pair of optical navigation sensors and an image sensor (e.g., CIS) are used to determine coordinates and an angle of a scanning object. By acquiring the coordinates of optical navigation sensors with respect to the image sensor after each relative movement between the image sensor and the scanning object, coordinates of pixel points on the image sensor can be readily determined as long as there is a predefined geometry between the optical navigation sensors and the image sensor. In addition, scanned image data can be modified, enhanced or corrected in scanning or in memory.

Abstract: An image-recording apparatus 1 includes image recording assembly 60 and a control section 40 having image-processing section 44. The image-processing section divides the image data indicative of the complete image into a plurality of image data pieces indicative of divided images, detects two adjoining divided-images that individually have a joint portion and adjoin each other at the respective joint portions, in the divided images indicated by the divided image data pieces and rotates one of the adjoining divided-images so as to make a recording direction of one of the adjoining divided-images opposite to a recording direction of the other adjoining divided-image. The control section controls the image recording assembly so that a recording medium carries in one direction during recording all divided-images. The divided images are recorded on the respective recording-media one by one to form a plurality of output images. The plurality of output images configure one complete image.

Abstract: An enhanced reading device which secures written material in a fixed location, and moves a video camera across the written text or images for the purpose of automatically registering the video camera at the beginning of each new line. The device uses a manually operated transmission to move the video camera across a line at a speed controlled by the user. The video camera is also stepped to the next line under control of the user. Optional embodiments permit the transmission to be powered and control by push buttons for automatic registration at the beginning of new lines. The device also has a document tray assembly to control vertical movement of the document in relation to the video camera under control of the user. The document tray assembly can also be optionally powered rather than manually operated.
