    Abstract: A linear light source apparatus is provided, being configured to convert light emitted from one light emitting element to light extended linearly, and output thus converted light. There is a lens that diffuses light flux within a predetermined region including the optical axis of the light emitting element, out of the light incident from the light emitting element, at a predetermined diffusion angle in the second direction (x-direction). The light is made to converge with respect to the first direction (y-direction). This converts the light from one light emitting element to light extended linearly and outputs the converted light. As for the second direction (x-direction), it is possible to make the light flux sparse in the predetermined region, and in the region outside thereof, the light flux is rendered to be dense. Therefore, a distribution of light quantity in the longitudinal direction (x-direction) is implemented by controlling the light flux density, upon employing the linear light source apparatus as a light source of the image reading apparatus.

    Abstract: An image capturing system includes an image capturing unit to photograph a medium placed on a medium installation face, a lighting unit disposed in a top unit to irradiate the medium installation face, a lighting control unit to perform driving control of the lighting unit, a scan instruction unit to issue an instruction to perform scanning to photograph the medium and to generate image data of the medium, and a non-readable area determining unit to determine whether or not there is a non-readable area based on an image of the medium obtained by photographing the medium with in a turned-on state of the lighting unit. When there is the non-readable area, the scanning is performed by turning off the lighting unit when the lighting unit was in a turned-on state, and when there is not the non-readable area, the scanning is performed in the turned-on state of the lighting unit.

    Abstract: An image processing apparatus is configured to extract contour information of a medium area from readout image data, and correct distortion of the medium area based on the contour information. The medium area is an area for image data corresponding to a medium serving as a reading target. The image processing apparatus includes an acquiring unit that acquires the readout image data, an extracting unit that extracts the contour information of the medium area from the readout image data, a displaying unit that displays the contour information so as to superpose the contour information on the readout image data, a detecting unit that detects an instruction of changing a position of the contour information. The extracting unit extracts again the contour information by reflecting the instruction of changing, and the displaying unit redisplays the contour information extracted again by the extracting unit.
