Abstract

An adjusting unit adjusts an output level of digital data converted from image data, based on a correction coefficient for each color. A color correction unit performs a color-correction process of correcting a fluctuation of adjusted output level based on a color-correction parameter that differs from one image reading device to another. The correction coefficient is generated before a reading unit is installed in the image reading device such that the output level becomes a predetermined value when reading the original document without the color-correction process, and then adjusted without the color-correction process at a time of installing the reading unit.

Fig. 6 is the block diagram of image-reading device 801.Image-reading device 801 comprises reading unit 103, graphics processing unit 302, load 810, sensor groups 820 and operating unit 800.In the 3rd embodiment, reading unit shown in Figure 2 103 is used as reading unit.
Graphics processing unit 302 comprises: controll block 700, and it controls image-reading device 801; And image processing block 750, it handles the view data that is obtained by reading unit 103.
Controll block 700 comprises: control unit 710, door (gate) generation unit 720 and door control unit 730.Control unit 710 control image-reading devices 801.The pupil becomes unit 720 in by the scope of operator through operating unit 800 appointments, to generate gate signal (gate signal).730 of door control units obtain the view data D that is obtained by reading unit 103 based on the gate signal that is become unit 720 to generate by the pupil during average door cycle (period) Out[9:0] (dateout).
Control unit 710 comprises CPU (CPU) 711, read-only memory (ROM) 712, random-access memory (ram) 713, operating unit interface 714 and I/O (I/O) control unit 715.CPU 711 carries out various handling procedures.ROM 712 storing therein will be by the computer program of CPU 711 execution.When CPU 711 computer program, RAM 713 is used as the working region.Operating unit interface 714 obtains data via operating unit 800, and video data is sent to operating unit 800.I/O control unit 715 obtains testing result from sensor groups 820, and based on the result who is obtained control command is sent to the load such as motor 810 in the image-reading device 801.
The pupil becomes unit 720 to generate average gate signal, and being used to define will be by average part in the dateout Dout [9:0] that is generated by reading unit 103.More specifically; For example be set to the 1000th pixel through I/O control unit 715 default locations; Give tacit consent to width and be set to 64 points; And default line (line) number is set to 16, and based on main scanning line synchronizing signal (main scanning LSYNC signal), generate average door with view data clock signal synchronous (CLK signal).Fig. 7 is the sequential chart that is used to explain the relation between view data, main scanning LSYNC signal and the average door.
Door control unit 730 utilizes the average gate signal that becomes unit 720 to generate by the pupil to carry out view data D OutThe coverage of [9:0] (masking), and be output image data D between low period in average gate signal only Out[9:0].
The dateout D that CPU 711 calculates through door control unit 730 Out[9:0's] is average, judges correction coefficient Rref, Gref and Bref through using equality (5) to (7), make calculated on average can be desired value, and the correction coefficient of being judged is sent to grey balance adjustment circuit 204 through I/O control unit 715.
Though the pupil becomes unit 720 to use the default value of position, width and line number under the above-mentioned situation to generate average gate signal, the pupil becomes unit 720 can also use the value of operator's appointment to generate average gate signal.More specifically, the screen that on operating unit 800, shows the value of the person that is used for the checked operation person's appointment of whether hoping the assigned operation.If the value of person's appointment that the operator hopes the assigned operation, then the operator utilizes the value of a certain operator's appointment of operating unit 800 inputs.Thus, the pupil becomes unit 720 to receive the value of some operator's appointment through operating unit 800, and uses the value of those operator's appointments to generate average gate signal.
Provide explanation below about the processing of the adjustment correction coefficient carried out by the control unit of image-reading device 801 710.

When receiving the order of the value of using operator's appointment (step S12 is), control unit receives the value (step S13) of those operator's appointed positions, width and line number from the operator via operating unit 800.When not receiving the order of the value of using operator's appointment (step S12 denys), control unit 710 obtains the default value (step S14) of position, width and line number from the for example memory cell of ROM 712.
After this, the pupil becomes unit 720 to use the value or the default value of those operator's appointments to generate average gate signal (step S15).Door control unit 730 utilizes the average gate signal that is generated to carry out dateout D OutThe coverage of [9:0].Control unit 710 receives dateout D through door control unit 730 Out[9:0].The CPU 711 of control unit 710 calculates the dateout D that is received Out[9:0's] is average, thereby obtains first average (step S16).
CPU 711 is through using first average and formula (5) to (7) calculating three correction coefficient (step S17).CPU 711 sends to grey balance adjustment circuit 204 with the correction coefficient of being calculated, to upgrade correction coefficient.After this, CPU 711 is to calculate dateout D with step S15 and the similar mode of S16 Out[9:0's] is average, thereby obtains second average (step S18).
Whether CPU 711 inspection second is on average in target zone (step S19).If second on average in target zone (step S19 is), then processing controls finishes.If second on average not in target zone (step S19 not), then repeating step S17 and S18, up to second on average in target zone till.
Thus,, after reading unit 103 is merged to image-reading device 801, can adjust correction coefficient automatically, and calculate the average of benchmark original copy according to the image-reading device 801 of the 3rd embodiment.This makes: even reading unit 103 and image-reading device 801 are made respectively in the different location, can obtain to be arranged in the suitable value of the dateout of the grey balance adjustment circuit 204 before the color correction circuit 205 with the operator's that reduces workload.In addition,, need not recomputate color correction parameter even the reading unit that will be installed in the image-reading device is made in the different location yet, and the irrelevant stable colour correction that can obtain and create conditions thus.
