CPC Class H04N

A 3D imaging optoelectronic module intended to be fixed to an image-forming device comprises: an optoelectronic sensor comprising a package with a chip electrically connected to a stack of at least one printed circuit board, the sensor and stack assembly molded in a resin and having faces according to Z with electrical interconnection tracks of the printed circuit boards. It comprises a thermally conductive rigid cradle in the form of a frame having a reference surface according to X, Y and: on a top surface: reference points intended to center and align the image-forming device in relation to the reference surface, fixing points to allow the fixing of the image-forming device, and an inner bearing surface having bearing points of the sensor adjusted to center and align the chip in relation to the reference surface.

Disclosed is an infrared image acquisition device capable of preventing a glare on a subject and acquiring an infrared image suitable for calculating the temperature of the subject. An infrared image acquisition device includes an infrared imaging unit, a corresponding area detection unit, a glare area detection unit, and an image correction unit. The infrared imaging unit acquires a first image and a second image having different imaging directions with respect to the subject. The corresponding area detection unit detects a first corresponding area and a second corresponding area corresponding to the subject in the first image and the second image. The glare area detection unit detects a first glare area where the first image has a larger amount of infrared rays than that of the second image, and a second glare area. The image correction unit corrects the first glare area based on the second glare area.

Systems and methods for enhancing an image for printing include identifying a plurality of true edge positions in a scanned digital image, generating an edge restoration signal based on image data at the plurality of true edge positions, generating a boost value for each pixel position in the image as a function of the edge restoration signal and an unsharp masking of the image, and generating an enhanced image. A system may include a print interface, an image interface receiving a digital image without an explicit K component, and an image processing module that computes a halftone energy measure, an edge strength, and a colorfulness measure, generate a K component based on the halftone energy measure, the edge strength, and the colorfulness measure, and output data representing the image and a K component to the print engine.
