Abstract: In an image scanner, a controller is responsive to a start command for line-scanning a document to produce a line-scan signal and providing a display of the line-scan signal on a viewing screen. While this sequence proceeds from a start position towards the end of a full scan, the user is allowed to reposition the document by viewing the screen if its orientation needs correction. The process continues until a stop command is produced or until the line-scan reaches the end of the full scan area, whichever is earlier. In response to the stop command, the controller restarts the line-scanning and display sequence from the start position to provide a full-scan of the material.

Abstract: A method and device for acquiring data related to topography of a medium includes projecting light, allowably from more than one direction, onto the surface of the medium at an angle of less than sixteen degrees relative to the surface and imaging the surface. For example, the imaging sensor may be an array of sensor elements that is used to determine navigation of a hand-held scanner along an original. By introducing light at an angle of less than sixteen degrees, surface irregularities cast shadows that form a high contrast illumination pattern along the surface of the medium. The navigation sensor detects multi-element variations of intensity of scattered light from the surface with respect to positions along the surface, so that the Nyquist criteria are adequately satisfied. Typically, the light is collimated incoherent light, but this is not critical. The illumination angle can be established by using a prism. The prism may have an antireflective thin film coating on one or more prism faces. The employment of a prism provides a number of advantages, such as use of a transparent surface in contact with the media and raising the illumination source(s) away from the media.

Abstract: The hand-held scanning device is adjustable between a compact transport configuration and a relatively larger use configuration. In its compact transport configuration, the hand-held scanning device can conveniently be carried, for example, in a shirt pocket. In its use configuration, however, the device is capable of scanning a relatively large object. The hand-held scanning device may be constructed of two housing portions that slide or pivot relatively to one another to provide for this adjustment.

Abstract: To provide a device which can easily copy an image within a limited area of an original. A reading window is defined in a lower projecting portion of a housing which is L-shaped in side elevation, providing a visual recognition member. The visual recognition member allows the user to visually recognize the image to be copied over which the housing is placed. When a start button is depressed, a sensor is reciprocally moved by a wire. An image read by the sensor is printed on a tape by a print head. The printed head tape is fed by a tape feed roller operatively coupled by a gear train to a motor which also drives the wire through a gear train.

Abstract: This invention relates to a handy sketching apparatus which has an image information reading function and a sketching function to draw an image on the basis of the image information read by the image information reading function, and which is easy to operate and easy to be miniaturized for smaller size.The handy sketching apparatus comprises a base block containing a progressive scanning image information reading mechanism through the bottom face, a sheet carrying path provided on the top side of the base block so as to carry a sheet in a specified direction substantially parallel to the bottom face of the base block, and an upper block integrally formed on the top side of the base block, straddling the sheet carrying path. The image information reading mechanism reads image information placed under the base block sequentially as the apparatus is moved in a sub-scanning direction. The upper block houses a traveling mechanism which is run back and forth in a main scanning direction across the sheet carrying path, thereby moving a drawing utensil to draw an image on the sheet on the sheet carrying path, on the basis of the image information read by the image information reading mechanism.

Abstract: A compact podium, of substantially conventional apperance, conceals therein a video camera and optical system. Illustrative materials, inserted into a slot at the speaker's waist, fall within the field of the camera after reflection from two mirrors. A two-way mirror serves as one reflector in the optical system and also as the sloped portion of the podium. The speaker looks through the two-way mirror and sees his illustrative material which is simultaneously displayed as a video picture. There is an unobstructed line of sight between the presenter and his audience.

Abstract: An apparatus for electrically transmitting the image of a pattern corresponding to the light transmission characteristic of a light-transmitting film substrate employs a linear image sensor for scanning the image of the pattern and producing a corresponding output signal, the frequency band of which is adjusted for transmission over a telephone circuit. The output signal can be made independent of magnification changes of the image-forming optical system, and the area of the pattern scanned by the linear image sensor can be set selectively. A second optical system is employed for observation and includes a retractable mirror that starts the production of the output signal when the mirror is retracted. Both a film image and data on an accompanying document can be transmitted.

Abstract: Disclosed is a video processor for a magnifier camera. In particular, the disclosure relates to a video processor that eliminates the use of a frame buffer. This, in turn, reduces the latency otherwise present in the video signal. The disclosed video processor also allows selected portions of the display to be shaded. This highlights the non-shaded portions of the display while at the same time allowing the entire object to be perceived by the user.
