摘要:
A photosensor system including a photosensor array having a plurality of photosensors arranged two-dimensionally comprises a driver circuit and a readout circuit for applying signal voltages to each photosensor, and also a control circuit having a function of controlling the voltages applied to each photosensor and adjusting the sensitivity of each photosensor. During an image reading operation and a reading operation for setting the sensitivity of each photosensor, a correction signal is generated, which has an effective voltage that can adjust an effective voltage, applied to each gate electrode of each photosensor, to 0 V, or to a value that minimizes degradation of the characteristics of each photosensor. This correction signal is applied to each gate electrode.

An image reading system which reads the images of a detectable object comprising an image display device that has an image display area to display images having luminosity corresponding to the display gradation and radiates the display illumination according to this luminosity; a detection surface in which the entire image display area of the image display device is covered with a laminated layer arrangement and a detectable object is placed; an image reading device comprising a first sub-area in the detection surface on which the detectable object is placed and a second sub-area which consists of an area corresponding to at least a portion of the area of the image display area except for the first sub-area; and a plurality of photosensors arranged in a matrix form provided in the first sub-area and second sub-area which has uniform transmittance, wherein at least a portion of the display illumination is permeated and the image of the detectable object is read in the first sub-area. While being able to read a detectable object image adequately, the image display can be performed satisfactorily.

A photosensor system includes a photosensor array which is constituted by two-dimensionally arraying a plurality of photosensors and has a light-receiving surface, and a front light source which is arranged to face the light-receiving surface at an interval, and illuminates a rear surface of an object whose front surface is set on the light-receiving surface. An image reading assembly reads an object image by receiving light that is emitted by the front light source and passes through the object.

A roll for a hot-dip metal coating bath has a substantially cylindrical shape. At least an outer peripheral surface of the roll is formed of a ceramic material. A relatively coarse groove is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the roll in a direction crossing the rotation axis. A plurality of relatively fine grooves is formed in the bottom surface of the coarse groove along the longitudinal direction of the coarse groove. In place of the fine grooves extending in the longitudinal direction of the coarse groove, a plurality of rows of fine grooves may be formed along the crosswise direction of the coarse groove.

Each of first and second material substrates made of single crystal silicon carbide has first and second back surfaces, first and second side surfaces, and first and second front surfaces. The first and second back surfaces are connected to a supporting portion. The first and second side surfaces face each other with a gap interposed therebetween, the gap having an opening between the first and second front surfaces. A closing portion for closing the gap over the opening is formed. A connecting portion for closing the opening is formed by depositing a sublimate from the first and second side surfaces onto the closing portion. The closing portion is removed. A silicon carbide single crystal is grown on the first and second front surfaces.

A color processing apparatus includes the following elements. A point group generator generates a point group existing in a color gamut of an output apparatus. A design point group extracting unit extracts, from the point group, a design point group that satisfies predetermined design conditions. A corresponding point group setting unit sets, on the basis of the design point group, a corresponding point group indicating a boundary of a color gamut represented by the design point group, such that points of the corresponding point group are associated with individual points of a boundary point group existing on a boundary of the color gamut of the output apparatus. A design color gamut boundary generator generates a boundary of a design color gamut that satisfies the predetermined design conditions, by using a set of the boundary point group and the corresponding point group.
