摘要:
An alogrithmic method is identified for compensating for thermochromaticity errors in insitu spectral color measurements of a color printing device. A difference is mapped between spectral measurements of a printed color generated by the color printing device measured at a first or hot temperature and at a second or cool ambient temperature where the mapping comprises a referenceable characteristic of the color printing device. The spectrophotometric measurement of a hot color is compared with colors obtained with thermochromaticity compensation matrix to assess if the measured color corresponds to the desired color which will result when cooled to ambient temperature.

Disclosed is an invisible encoding system which can be used for tracking printing jobs. Specifically, this disclosure provides a system and method of encoding sheets of a printing job, where the encoding is invisible to the human naked eye and the encoded information may be permanently fixed to the finished printed product.
摘要:
A color management system is provided for enabling imaging of selected colors called spot colors that document dynamically adjusting the normal printer gamut to achieve extended colors. Developed mass may be increased or decreased by changing set points such as a photoreceptor roll charge, development bias or raster output scanner laser power.

An automatic gray balance control system to produce TRCs for all primary colors in a reproduction device and for each pitch of a photoreceptor system by printing target patches for each pitch, measuring the output colors, and automatically readjusting the tone reproduction curves until a satisfactory level of accuracy is obtained as compared to the theoretical desired output. The system produces pitch-based gray balanced TRCs that are updated frequently for each pitch, with different TRCs for different pitches, to ensure consistency in output from pitch to pitch as well as from page to page on a given pitch.

A marking device is provided which is capable of operating in a standard output color gamut mode or a non-standard output color gamut mode. The device includes: a color manager that performs color processing on input color data in accordance with a calibration of the device; and, a marking engine that applied colorants to an image-receiving medium in accordance with output from the color manager. Suitably, when the device is operating in the non-standard mode, then the calibration of the device which is conducted is an off-gray balance calibration.
摘要:
A printer or other marking engine includes a marking material transfer device, such as a photoreceptor drum or belt, that includes a plurality of pitches. Each pitch receives an individual color of marking material and conveys the marking material to a substrate. The marking engine forms a desired image in a main image area of the substrate using marking material from one or more of the pitches, and produces a target patch pattern for each of the pitches in a margin area located outside the main image area. A measuring device such as a spectrophotometer is used to measure each target patch pattern, and based on the measured values, an individual color calibration is performed for each pitch for use in a subsequent marking operation. The color calibration may include generating or modifying a tone reproduction curve for each pitch based on the measured values. The margin area may be later trimmed off, thereby removing the portion of the substrate on which the target patch pattern is formed.

What is disclosed is a video-based system and method for estimating heart rate variability from time-series signals generated from video images captured of a subject of interest being monitored for cardiac function. In a manner more fully disclosed herein, low frequency and high frequency components are extracted from a time-series signal obtained by processing a video of the subject being monitored. A ratio of the low and high frequency of the integrated power spectrum within these components is computed. Analysis of the dynamics of this ratio over time is used to estimate heart rate variability. The teachings hereof can be used in a continuous monitoring mode with a relatively high degree of measurement accuracy and find their uses in a variety of diverse applications such as, for instance, emergency rooms, cardiac intensive care units, neonatal intensive care units, and various telemedicine applications.
摘要:
What is disclosed is a method for determining a color solution which achieves color objectives for a color marking device involves performing the following. In one embodiment, N objectives of interest are identified for a color marking device and a N-dimensional Pareto Front is constructed which comprises a collection of color solutions which accommodates those objectives. The Pareto Front is constructed using an optimization process based upon printer models of the objectives. Color solutions can be at least one color recipe, or a combination of color recipes and process actuators. A target point is selected in an N-dimensional objective space based upon at least one user-selected preference. The target point is then mapped to a point on the Pareto Front. The mapping identifies one of the color solutions which, in turn, is used to generate a spot color for the device. The generated spot color achieves the user-selected preference.
