The mode setting module 291 provides an ID card transmission mode and a document transmission mode, and transmits a mode selection signal according to a user input to the image conversion module 293.
The image conversion module 293 receives a mode selection signal from the mode setting module 291 and performs conversion processing on the image selected by the user. The image conversion module 293 may perform a conversion process by requesting the
When the image conversion module 293 receives the ID card transmission mode selection signal from the mode setting module 291, the image conversion module 293 determines the image selected by the user as the ID card and adjusts the size of the ID card image. Specifically, the image conversion module 293 converts the size into a predetermined ID size while adjusting the ratio of the width and height of the ID image to 0.8. The ratio may be adjusted according to the embodiment, and may be adjusted to 1.5 times the actual ID size.
Preferably, the image conversion module 293 fixes the height and reduces the width when the ratio of the width and height of the identification card image exceeds 0.8, and fixes the width and increases the height when the ratio is less than 0.8.
When the image conversion module 293 receives the document transmission mode selection signal from the mode setting module 291, the image conversion module 293 determines the image selected by the user as a general document, and maintains the original without resizing the document image. .
The image conversion module 293 performs image processing processing on the identification card image and the general document image.
Specifically, the image conversion module 293 divides the image into a predetermined number of blocks, obtains an average of R, G, and B values for each block, and weights the values based on the respective R, G, and B average values for each block. Set it. The image conversion module 293 may apply the weight to each of the R, G, and B values constituting each pixel constituting each block, and determine and apply the final R, G, and B values of each pixel. do.
For example, after setting the weight of the R value smaller than the average value to 0.8 and setting the weight of the R value smaller than the average value to 0.8 based on the average value of the R values of the first block of the image is 200, When the R value of the first pixel of the first block is 220, the weight 0.8 is applied to adjust the R value of the first pixel to 176. Therefore, the parts that appear relatively bright due to the large number of color elements control the brightness, and the parts that have relatively shadows or shadows are brightly displayed as a whole.
In addition, the image conversion module 293 may not affect the image quality when the value of each pixel constituting each block deviates from the average value by a predetermined range based on each R, G, and B average value of each block. Determine the value as 0 and apply. For example, when the R value of the first block of the image is 200 and the threshold range is 50, when the R value of the first pixel of the first block is 260, the R value of the first pixel is adjusted to 0. . In other words, if the difference between the value of each pixel and the average value is greater than the threshold, the value of that pixel is set to zero. Instead of obtaining average values of R, G, and B for each block, the color value of the pixel itself may be adjusted to 0 using the overall average value of R + G + B.
In addition, the image conversion module 293 synthesizes the image processing ID card image in the background image of A4 size prepared in advance in the ID card transmission mode. The background image may be a white image.
The fax transmission module 295 receives the processed image from the image conversion module 293 and transmits the received image to the
