Abstract: A stereoscopic optical reader of a form example is provided where two images are captured of the same scene on a known form example taken from two different angles. The stereoscopic images are amenable to parallax calculations that may help determine that the form example is flat. If the two captured images are congruent with each other and/or with a stored digital model of the form, the entire form example may be read. If the images are not congruent, the form may be rejected as not being flat, and/or the image data may be further processed via parallax operations and/or other such projections to yield a virtual flat form.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a scanner, and more particularly, to a scanner which scans by automatically detecting whether an object to be scanned is put on a document scan area of the scanner, and a scanning method using the same. According to the present invention, a scanner, which has a transparent scan area capable of supporting an object to be scanned and automatically detects the object to be scanned, includes: a light source for emitting light towards the scan area; an image sensor having a light-receiving device array for detecting light that is incident through the scan area; a driving means for moving the image sensor on a straight line so that the image sensor crosses the scan area; and a control means for controlling the image sensor and the driving means, wherein the controller controls a light source of the image sensor and the driving means so that the light-receiving device array detects light that is incident through the scan area in a state where the light source is turned on and a state where the light source is turned off after the image sensor moves to a detection location and compares output signals of the light-receiving device array, which are acquired in the state where the light source is turned on and the state where the light source is turned off, to automatically detect whether the object to be scanned is located in the scan area.

Abstract: A stereoscopic optical reader of a form example is provided where two images are captured of the same scene on a known form example taken from two different angles. The stereoscopic images are amenable to parallax calculations that may help determine that the form example is flat. If the two captured images are congruent with each other and/or with a stored digital model of the form, the entire form example may be read. If the images are not congruent, the form may be rejected as not being flat, and/or the image data may be further processed via parallax operations and/or other such projections to yield a virtual flat form.
