Abstract

The method involves dividing a painting into contoured fields or regions. The fields are provided with identifiers associated with defined colours and/or grey tones. Electronic detection of the different grey tones or colour tones of an image is performed using a scanner, video camera or electronic camera. The detected grey tones or colour tones are divided into a limited number of categories and each field is allocated grey tone or colour tone category, a boundary and a category identifier. A corresp. image is printed out. Approximately 2 to 25, pref. 16, categories of tones may be used.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Malvorlage für das sogenannte "Malen nach Zahlen", bei dem diese Malvorlage in konturierte Felder aufgeteilt wird, wobei die Felder mit Kennungen versehen werden, die jeweils einer bestimmten Farbe und/oder Grautönung zugeordnet sind, wobei ferner eine Erfassung der unterschiedlichen Grautöne oder Farbtöne einer bildlichen Vorlage erfolgt, maschinell diese unterschiedlichen Grautöne oder Farbtöne in eine beschränkte Anzahl von Kategorien aufgeteilt werden und jedem Feld mit einem Grauton oder Farbton einer bestimmten Kategorie eine Umrandung und eine die Kategorie kennzeich­ nende Kennung gegeben wird, sowie eine entsprechende Malvor­ lage ausgedruckt wird (Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches).The invention relates to a method for producing a Coloring page for the so-called "painting by numbers", in which this coloring page is divided into contoured fields, the fields are provided with identifiers, each are assigned to a specific color and / or shade of gray, wherein also a detection of the different shades of gray or color tones of a visual template is done by machine these different shades of gray or tones into one limited number of categories can be divided and each field with a shade of gray or hue of a particular one Category indicates a border and a category Identifier is given, as well as a corresponding coloring location is printed (preamble of claim).

Eine umständliche und aufwendige Variante dieses Gedankens des "Malens nach Zahlen" ist Gegenstand von US-PS 295 4615, indem dort mehrere Blätter oder Bögen übereinander zu legen sind. A cumbersome and complex variant of this idea "Painting by Numbers" is the subject of US Pat. No. 295,465, by placing several sheets or sheets on top of each other are.  

Das Hauptpatent P 44 41 860 sieht zur Erfassung der unter­ schiedlichen Grautöne oder Farbtöne einer Fotografie, insbe­ sondere ist dabei an die Fotografie eines menschlichen Gesichtes gedacht, den Einsatz eines Scanners vor. Dies hat sich bewährt.The main patent P 44 41 860 provides for the registration of the different shades of gray or shades of a photograph, esp special is the photography of a human Faced with the use of a scanner. this has proven itself.

Mit der vorliegenden Erfindung soll demgegenüber eine Erwei­ terung des Einsatzes der Erfindung auf andere bildliche Vorlagen ermöglicht und die Erfindung weiter vervollkommnet werden.In contrast, the present invention is intended to provide an extension Extension of the use of the invention to other pictorial Templates enabled and the invention further perfected will.

Zur Lösung der vorgenannten Aufgaben- bzw. Problemstellung ist bei einem Verfahren gemäß dem vorgenannten Oberbegriff gemäß dem Kennzeichen des Anspruches vorgesehen, daß die Erfassung der bildlichen Vorlage durch Aufnahme mittels einer Videokamera oder einer elektronischen Kamera erfolgt und mittels der Videokamera oder der elektronischen Kamera eine Umsetzung der Vorlage in digitale Signale erfolgt und daß diese Signale der maschinellen Weiterverarbeitung, einschließlich des Ausdruckens der Malvorlage, zugeführt werden. Hiermit ergibt sich eine Erweiterung der Erfindung, indem nicht nur Fotografien als Grundlage für die spätere Malvorlage dienen können, sondern auch jedes beliebige Bild das sich z. B. in Form einer Landschaft, eines Gebäudes, eines Gesichtes u. s. w. darstellt und mittels einer Videokamera oder einer elektronischen Kamera direkt aufge­ nommen werden kann. Videokameras und elektronische Kameras sind in der Erfassung und Weitergabe optischer Eindrücke wesentlich schneller als ein Scanner. Sie können das betref­ fende Bild von einer Fotografie abnehmen, sind aber hierauf nicht beschränkt, sondern können jeden bildli­ chen Eindruck der Natur (wie bereits dargelegt) der maschi­ neller Erfassung und damit der Herstellung der gewünschten Malvorlage zuführen.To solve the aforementioned task or problem is in a method according to the aforementioned generic term provided according to the characterizing part of the claim that the Acquisition of the visual template by recording with a video camera or an electronic camera and by means of the video camera or the electronic camera the template is converted into digital signals and that these signals of machine processing, including printing out the coloring page will. This results in an expansion of the invention, by not just taking photographs as the basis for later Coloring page can serve, but also any picture that z. B. in the form of a landscape, a building, a face u. s. w. represents and by means of a Video camera or an electronic camera directly attached can be taken. Video cameras and electronic cameras are capturing and sharing optical impressions much faster than a scanner. You can do that taking a picture from a photograph but not limited to this; Chen impression of the nature (as already stated) of the machine neller acquisition and thus the production of the desired Feed coloring page.

Die zum Hauptpatent geschilderten Verteile und übrigen Merkmale werden auch beim Gegenstand des vorliegenden Zu­ satzpatentes verwirklicht. Es wird daher der Inhalt des Hauptpatentes mit zum Offenbarungsinhalt des vorliegenden Zusatzpatentes gemacht. Insbesondere gilt dies für die computergerechte Weiterverarbeitung der digitalen Signale durch ein computergesteuertes Gerät, das mit einer entspre­ chenden Programmierung versehen ist. Auch gilt dies für die anhand der Abbildungen des Hauptpatentes im einzelnen ge­ schilderten Vorgänge der Umsetzung der optischen Vorlage (z. B. eines Gesichtes) in eine fertige Malvorlage mittels einer elektronischen Kamera bzw. einer Videokamera. Hiermit erfolgt eine Umsetzung der bildlichen Vorlage in digitale Signale und eine Zuführung dieser Signale der maschinellen Weiterverarbeitung und der sich hieraus ergebenden Ausdruckung der Malvorlagen.The distributions described for the main patent and others Features are also the subject of the present Zu  patents realized. It is therefore the content of the Main patent with the disclosure content of the present Additional patent made. This applies in particular to the computer-compatible further processing of the digital signals through a computer-controlled device that corresponds with a appropriate programming. This also applies to the based on the illustrations of the main patent in detail ge described processes of implementing the optical template (e.g. a face) in a finished coloring page an electronic camera or a video camera. Herewith the visual template is converted into digital Signals and a feed of these signals to the machine Further processing and the resulting Print the coloring pages.
