Abstract:
An ergonomic, compact scanner operation is achieved by providing a flatbed scanner and a sheet fed scanner in a space efficient arrangement with optimal access features for users. Documents traverse the sheet fed scanner along a path that allows inclusion of an easily accessible flat bed scanner.
Abstract:
A document camera and its light box are provided in the disclosure. The light box includes a base, a light guiding plate embedded in the base, and a light source device movably disposed on the base. The light guiding plate has a light input face and a light output face which are both light transmissive from the base. When the light source device is moved to face the light input face, the light source device provides lights outwards the light guiding plate via the light input face, otherwise, when the light source device is moved away from the light input face, the light source device provides light to the light output face down wards.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a portable magnifier camera that can be selectively positioned into a variety of configurations. At least four distinct viewing configurations are provided: a reading mode wherein the camera rests flatly upon the viewed object; a writing mode wherein the camera rests at an angle upon the viewed object; a hand-held mode wherein the user holds the camera relative to a distant object; and an inspection mode wherein the user holds the viewed object relative to the camera. These configurations enable a user to effectively view objects of differing size and at varying distances.
Abstract:
The present invention is to provide a document processing device with picture-taking, video and audio recording, scanning and projecting functions, which mainly is including a set of base composed of a left and a right base bodies, a vertical rack bar able to be insert-put on the left and right base bodies, a horizontal rack bar pivot-connected on top of the vertical rack bar, a main machine body pivot-set in the vertical rack bar elements. The said main machine body has an optical lens and is set with a microphone and a light compensator. The device of present invention can be provided for putting the ordinary document data on the base. The data on the documents can be transformed into editable files by utilizing the optical lens inside the main machine body to take the pictures and through the recognizing software. Furthermore, it can record the audio or video in accordance with selected action processes through the main machine body. Simultaneously, the main machine body can further provide for connecting externally with the computers to proceed the image projecting. Due to that it has versatile functions, is small in volume and easily dissembled and is able to be receive-laid inside the base for convenient carrying, it thus obtains the optimum practical values.
Abstract:
An exemplary digital picture frame includes a frame body, a supporting portion, a carrying portion, an image capturing unit and light sources. The frame body includes a rear surface. The supporting portion extends from the rear surface and is configured for supporting the digital picture frame on a supporting surface. The carrying portion is arranged at the rear surface. The carrying portion includes a mount for facing the supporting surface. The mount is configured for holding a printed picture thereon. The image capturing unit is arranged at the supporting portion and is configured for capturing an image of the printed picture. The light sources are arranged at the supporting portion and are configured for illuminating the printed picture.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a printing unit which is disposed in a housing and configured to form an image on a sheet, an lid attached to the housing by a hinge mechanism, and a camera which is attached to the lid and configured to read an image on a document while the lid is open, wherein the sheet having the image formed by the printing unit is discharged on the lid, and when the lid is opened, the camera can read the document which is placed at a reading position below the camera.
Abstract:
A method of capturing an image of a document is provided. First, a notebook computer having a base is provided, wherein an image pickup device is disposed on the notebook computer, and a symbol mark is formed on the base of the notebook computer. Next, a document fixer having a fixer middle mark is provided. The document is fixed by the document fixer, wherein a centerline of a long edge of the document is aligned with the fixer middle mark. Next, the document fixer is moved according to a size of the document until the fixer middle mark is aligned with the symbol mark. After the image of the document is captured, an image processing procedure is performed. By aligning the fixer middle mark with the symbol mark of the notebook computer, the document is precisely positioned and thus a sharp image with no tilted distortion is acquired.
Abstract:
A visual presenter includes a base, an upright portion standing from the base and having a distal end, a support column including a horizontal portion formed by bending the distal end of the upright portion so that the horizontal portion protrudes forward away from the base, the horizontal portion having a distal end, an imaging camera head mounted on the distal end of the horizontal portion, and a pivot portion provided on the upright portion of the support column so that the horizontal portion is pivotable horizontally.
Abstract:
A visual presenter includes a base including a pivotal shaft support, a support column standing on the pivotal shaft support and having a distal end curved so as to protrude in such a direction that the distal end becomes more distant from the base, and an imaging camera rotatably mounted on the distal end of the support column. The imaging camera includes a casing having both lengthwise ends, an imaging camera body mounted on one lengthwise end of the casing and an operation unit mounted on the other lengthwise end. The pivotal shaft support is biased from a lengthwise center of the casing relative to the support column so that a distance from the support column to the one lengthwise end of the casing on which the imaging camera is mounted is longer than a distance from the support column to the other lengthwise end of the casing.
Abstract:
An articulated arm for the alignment or a capturing device for optically capturing an object to be placed on a support surface, has—as a conventional double parallelogram arm—a base part, a top part, an articulate part and two pairs of rods which connect the base part or the top part to the articulated part. The articulated arm furthermore has a shaft which is rotatably fastened to the top part and has an operative mechanical connection to one of the rods pivotably fastened to the top part. This operative connection results in a rotation of the shaft relative to the top part on pivoting of the rod.
