Abstract:
An image capturing system includes a smartphone serving as an imaging unit, and a mounting stand to be disposed on a medium setting surface on which a medium serving as a reading target is set. The mounting stand has a placement surface on which the smartphone is placed at a position allowing the smartphone to image the medium set on the medium setting surface. When generating a starting trigger based on image information of an imaging area in the state where the smartphone is placed on the mounting stand, the smartphone executes a function (scanning operation) associated with the starting trigger.
Abstract:
In an image capturing system, a lighting device includes a base disposed on a medium setting surface on which a medium serving as a reading target is set, an arm extending upward from the base, a top unit extending from the arm in such a manner that the top unit faces the medium setting surface, a placement surface that is provided to the top unit and on which a smartphone (imaging unit) is placed at a position allowing the smartphone to photograph the medium set on the medium setting surface, and a lighting LED that is provided to the top unit and irradiates the medium setting surface.
Abstract:
An overhead scanner device includes an image photographing unit, and a control unit, wherein the control unit includes an image acquiring unit that controls the image photographing unit to acquire an image of a document including at least an indicator provided by a user, a specific-point detecting unit that detects two specific points each determined based on the distance from the gravity center of an indicator to the end of the indicator, from the image acquired by the image acquiring unit, and an image cropping unit that crops the image acquired by the image acquiring unit into a rectangle with opposing corners at the two points detected by the specific-point detecting unit.
