  • Method of measuring the movement of a material sheet and optical sensor for performing the method
    Patent number: 6759671
    Abstract: Measurements on a sheet (12), for example measurement of the movement of the sheet in a printer, can be performed by directing a measuring beam (8) towards the sheet and utilizing the effects of self-mixing in a diode laser (2) and Doppler shift in the measuring beam caused by the movement. The measuring method and a dedicated, cheap and compact, sheet sensor (1) may be used for determining different parameters and in different sheet processing apparatus.

  • Image device having camera and image perspective correction and possibly rotation and staggering correction
    Publication number: 20030048271
    Abstract: An image device (1), comprises image means (2) for taking an initial image (I) including graphics and/or text, and an image correcting means (4) coupled to the image means (2) for correcting the image taken. The image means (2) are camera means (2), and the image correcting means (4) are arranged for performing perspective corrections by effecting image sizing on the image taken. This way perspective errors emanating from the taking of a flat image can be corrected for by means of appropriate software. Implementation of the feature in for example a mobile GSM telephone already including a microprocessor is therefore advantageous allowing high quality fax communication.
