Abstract

A scanner using multi-column sensing device and image scanning method are disclosed, which is suitable for scanning a scanned document. The scanner comprises a multi-column sensing device, a summation averaging device, and a block of memory; wherein, the multi-column sensing device has several sensing wires corresponding to each color channel, and any one of the sensing wires can get an image signal during scanning. The summation averaging device can accumulate and average the obtained image signals from the scanning on the same portion of the scanned document by any one of the sensing wires corresponding to the same color channel to obtain an averaged image signal. The memory is used to store the image signals and the averaged image signals.

Description of the invention (1) The present invention relates to a scanner and an image scanning method, and particularly to a scanner and an image scanning method using a multi-column sensing device. With the rapid development of multimedia video, the speed and clarity of image processing have gradually become the goals pursued by the public. Among all kinds of multimedia devices, scanners can be said to be the earliest video components. However, 'because the scanner's operation method is to obtain the image based on the contrast between light and dark through the reflected light on the document or the transmitted light obtained after Yan Sui has passed through the document', therefore, any external light or irregular scattering, The characteristics of the light and other light will affect the scanned image to varying degrees. In addition, the limitation of the 'sensor' manufacturing is also a factor that causes noise to occur, and the noise will distort the obtained scanned image. In order to solve this problem, the conventional technology has proposed a method '@ 京 尤 is the patent of Taiwan Patent Publication No. 385608. In this patent, the conventional technique uses a single sensor to scan the same document multiple times, and multiple scanned images. Afterwards, these scanned images are averaged to reduce the effect of noise on the real image. However, such a design must cause the sensor to scan multiple times, so the sensor must be stopped and stopped many times', wasting a lot of unnecessary time. Such shortcomings are extremely unbearable in modern life in pursuit of efficiency. In summary, there are several shortcomings in the conventional techniques, which are listed as follows: 1. Without processing the noise in the scanned image, the resulting scanned image is prone to distortions of varying degrees; and 2. The same sense The scanner scans the same document multiple times, then the paper size is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) U5 ,, --- (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this Page) Words ·

The scanner 100 includes a set of reflecting mirrors 120, a set of lens groups 130, and a multi-column sensing device 140. Wherein, the reflected light obtained from the scanning document 110 or the transmitted light obtained after being transmitted through the scanned document will be reflected by the reflecting mirror 120 and then transmitted by the lens group 130 to illuminate the multi-column sensing device 140. The multi-column sensing device 140 includes a plurality of sensing elements 142, 144, and 146. In this embodiment, each of the sensing elements 142, 144, or 146 has three sensing lines, namely, sensing lines 142a, 142b, and 142c, sensing lines 144a, 144b, and 144c, and sensing lines 146a, 146b, and 146c.

Of course, a monochrome scanner can also use the system provided by the present invention. In this embodiment, the light obtained by scanning a same portion of the document 110 is transmitted through the reflecting mirror 120 and the lens group 130 according to the arrangement order of the sensing elements 142, 144, and 146 and the multi-column sensing device. The forward direction of 140 is sequentially illuminated on the sensing elements 142, 144, and 146. The scanner will accumulate the image signals obtained by scanning the same part of the scan file 110 by the sensing elements 142, 144, and 146 (actually, the sensing lines 142a-142c, 144a-144c, and 146a-146c). After averaging, the average image signal obtained after accumulation and averaging is output as the data source of the scanned image for subsequent processing.

Among them, the accumulating averager 230 has an adder and a divider to perform image accumulation and averaging respectively. The image signal represented by the analog signal obtained by the multi-column sensing device 210 is converted into the image signal represented by the digital signal by the analog / digital converter 220, and then stored in the memory 240 by the accumulating averager 230. In. The processing of the accumulating averager 230 is that when a part of the scanned document is scanned for the first time, the image signal obtained by the scanning is directly stored in the memory 240.

Among them, it is used as the signal for the next image signal accumulation. When the last image signal corresponding to the same part of the scanned document is sent from the multi-column sensing device 210 to the accumulating averager 230 through the analog / digital converter 220, the stored in the memory 240 corresponds to this same part The image signal is also sent to the accumulating averager 240. After the two image signals are accumulated by the adder, the accumulating averager 230 further divides the image signals obtained by the addition by the accumulating averager 230. The device performs the averaging operation and obtains an average image signal accordingly. This average image signal is stored in the memory 240 and is ready to be output as a data source for subsequent image processing procedures. In addition, in this embodiment, the memory read-write address controller 250 is used to specify an address to be stored in the image signal to be read out in the memory and the body 240 during the accumulation and averaging process by the accumulation averager 230. And specify the storage address of the image obtained after the accumulation or averaging in the memory 240.

Then, at T = 2t, the image signal obtained by scanning the part 310a of the scanning document by the sensing element 312 is added to the previous image signal also coming from the part 310a of the scanning document, and the added result is stored in In memory. Such an accumulation process is not completed until T = 12t, and the image signal obtained by the sensing element 334 scanning through a portion 310a of the scan file is also accumulated. When the last image signal is accumulated, the image signal obtained by the accumulation is averaged by the accumulation averager 230 as shown in FIG. 2. The average image signal obtained after averaging (assuming it is obtained at T = 13t) is used as the data source for subsequent image processing. According to Qi Zou, the staff of the Wealth and Financial Affairs Bureau, the consumption of the employees is as follows: For other parts of the scanned document 310, such as 310b'310c, etc., the present invention is also performed in the manner described above, supplemented by a pipeline method. . Therefore, in this embodiment, after obtaining the first average image signal at T = 13t, an average image signal can be obtained at every time t. In this way, in addition to the method of obtaining a low-noise scanned image by averaging the image signal, the time required is also the same as the time required for a general scanner.

Not far apart (in this embodiment, it is only 13t longer than the average scanner). In summary, the present invention can obtain a scanned image with low noise in a short time, so as to provide users with a fast and clear image acquisition pipeline. Although the present invention has been disclosed as above with a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and retouches without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
