摘要:
A scheme that generates image processing source code for custom applications automatically by using structured image (SI) technology in a way that takes advantage of the unbound and incomplete features of SI. Resulting custom applications developed by this method can be defined and converted to running source code in minutes, or shipped to a co-user of the system in a compact portable form for remote code generation.Nested sub-component references and associated image processing operations necessary to generate an output raster image are obtained from a structured image template. Image processing operations and the order of said operations within an image processing definition are stored within the structured image definition. Unbound structured image references to undefined component objects and incomplete structured image references to image processing operations and parameters not explicitly defined within said structured image are input options. Source code is generated from structured image definition language automatically utilizing a modified structured image render program which analyzes said structured image definition language. The code can be used for further rendering or code modification activities.
摘要:
A method and device for describing a complex color raster image as a collection of objects in a hierarchical and device independent format. The purpose of structured imaging (SI) is to expand the scope of a raster image to a collection of individually manipulable component objects. An SI is a hierarchical description of a single output image raster which may be used as one component of a page in a structured document. Objects contributing to the output raster may originate from text, graphics, other rasters or a combination thereof, and all maintain their heritage for selectability and modification. The SI describes not only the source data but also the image processing operations required for rendering the output raster. SI technology supports re-editability, customization and enhancement, automatic image assembly and high performance imaging. Thus, such a model has implications not only in an image editing and processing arena, but also in the filing and printing services used for image handling.

An assessment authoring system implemented by an operative set of processor executable instructions configured for execution by at least one processor includes a user interface and an assessment generation component. The user interface communicates user input and the assessment generation component receives the user input from the user interface. The assessment generation component generates an assessment data structure for printing on a multifunction device. The printed assessment includes a marking region adapted to receive a human marking. The system may utilize a model or rubric that can be used to score the human marks when are processed by image processing.

A method and system for automatically helping a teacher/educator evaluate assessments administered to students for determining student's attributes. The teacher/educator reviews stored assessment forms at a digital user interface (DUI) at a multifunction device (MFD) and selects the desired forms and creates an Assessment Batch which includes a List of Students to be given the forms for marking. The system automatically codes each form with personalized student information and prints the individualized assessment forms. The teacher/educator administers the assessment and assessment forms are manually marked, collected and scanned at the MFD, entered into storage and the marked images automatically analyzed and the assessments automatically evaluated from stored rubrics and the teacher/educator is automatically notified by email that the evaluation has been performed. The system enables the teacher/educator to review the evaluations remotely and validate/annotate the evaluation and update the records in storage The Assessment Batch may be created for a list of students in a group, a class, a grade level, a school, a plurality of schools and students in a geographical area.

An image editor stores color pixels for an image to be edited in an image pixel buffer and a lookup register bank. The stored image is displayed on a monitor. An operator uses a mouse to designate a screen path that identifies an object in the image, and pixel position data is detected for the screen path. A programmed computer determines in real time one or more criteria for a search controller on the basis of hue, saturation and luminance variables which are determined from the stored pixel color data for pixels along the screen path. The computer further searches the image pixels to identify the object and its boundaries in accordance with the search controller criteria, and applies color edit actions to the identified object within the image.

摘要:
An ink jet printhead having an integral membrane filter fabricated over the surface of the printhead containing the ink inlet is disclosed. The individual printheads are obtained by a sectioning operation which cuts aligned and bonded channel and heater wafers. The mated wafers contain a plurality of printheads and must be separated. The integral membrane filter is formed on the channel wafer after it is anisotropically etched incorporating the etch resistant mask layer and prior to mating with the heater wafer. A patternable layer is deposited over the etch resistant masking layer and exposed, patterned and developed to establish the mesh filter. In one embodiment, the side of the channel wafer not patterned and etched is heavily doped to form an etch stop which increases the robustness of the membrane filter by ensuring that the masking layer remains intact during subsequent fabricating steps. This doped region beneath the patternable layer is then etched using the membrane filter as a mask to open the filter pores through the doped layer of the channel wafer, thereby increasing the filter thickness and its overall strength.
