Abstract: A method and apparatus for acquiring a corrected digital image of an object includes a digital camera operable to capture a plurality of color component images, an imager body and a support arm. The support arm is coupled to the imager body and adapted to support the digital camera. An image processor is provided to produce corrected color component images and an image combiner is provided to combine the corrected color component images to form the corrected digital image. The camera is moveable to more than one position to enable to formation of three-dimensional images or images with increased depth of focus.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for digital image correction in which a plurality of received color component arrays received from a digital camera are each corrected for distortion dependent upon the color associated with the array. Other corrections may also be applied, such as for sensitivity non-uniformity in the sensing array or illumination non-uniformity. The corrected color component arrays for each of the plurality of color components are combined to form a corrected digital image. The method and apparatus may be integrated with digital cameras in a variety of applications including, but not limited to, digital document imaging.
