    摘要： A method, and a document scanning apparatus employing the method, of scanning with a light source. The method comprises the acts of determining a calibration time of the light source and light sensor in a scanning unit, adjusting an activation time for the light source based on the calibration time, scaling a clock signal based on the activation time, and activating the light source based on the scaled clock signals. Where a red, green and blue LED light source is used, the longest of the activation times of the LEDs is used for the scaling of the clock signals. In another embodiment, the time between the start of the activation of last LED scan on a previous scan line and the start of activation of the first LED on the subsequent scan line is adjusted to maintain the predetermined resolution used for the scan.

    摘要： The present invention is directed to a system and method for reducing the memory requirement for offset and gain calibration to relieve the size/performance bottleneck in scanner systems. The resulting methodology produces visually equivalent scanned results with a substantial increase in performance, which results in a shorter amount of time required to output a first copy in, for example, an all-in-one device. Since the calibration step is often the bottleneck in scanner performance, this method noticeably speeds up scan and copy time. Implementing the decompression in hardware requires a minimal amount of hardware overhead and complexity. Thus, this method has a minimal impact on the size and cost of the scanner controller (e.g., an ASIC—application specific integrated circuit). Since compression only takes place at most once per scan, this added step has no significant impact on the overall scan time. By allowing dynamic grouping of pixels using a single calibration packet, the quality of the compensation can be optimized with the size of the compensation data being minimized. Adding the ability to shift the compressed deviation stored in the calibration packet, the range of the pixel-to-pixel deviation can be increased without impacting the size of the calibration data. This flexibility makes this invention applicable to future image sensors that may have widely varying deviations in pixel-to-pixel offset and gain values.

    摘要： Scanned image content is analyzed by identifying and quantifying each of a number of pixel categories in sub-regions of a rectangular grid defined over the scanned-in image data. The counts or other quantities are compared with predetermined pixel distributions, and the sub-regions are characterized in response to the comparison. An image processing operation that depends upon the characterization can then be performed.

    摘要： Digital images that are produced by an image forming device may be processed using an edge enhancement technique to reduce the effects of halftone color depth reductions. For each element in the original image, certain detail elements are classified by examining the magnitude of pixel intensity gradients between elements of interest in a first window applied at each element and other elements in the first window. If a first predetermined condition is satisfied, those elements locations are stored. After halftoning, a morphological filter may be applied to the same element locations in the halftone image to enhance the halftone image.
