  • Patent number: 6658203
    Abstract: An imaging system and method which successively records parts of a single frame image compensates for variations in intensity of an illuminating source such that the recorded single frame image appears to have been generated by a substantially temporally constant light intensity. This compensation allows inexpensive light sources and detectors to be employed.
    Type: Grant

    Assignee: Phase One A/S
    Inventors: Jan Oster, Niels V. Knudsen
  • Patent number: 5999661
    Abstract: An image processing system and method for processing a source digital image with a first energy sensitivity parameter value and including first pixels of first pixel values into a target digital image with a selected second energy sensitivity parameter value and including second pixels of second pixel values, for enabling a photographer to adjust resolution and sensitivity of a digital image to correspond to the light sensitivity of a specific photographic film. Thus, the photographer can use a light meter to indicate pairs of exposure time and diaphragm settings for the electronic camera that will ensure a correct exposure of the digital image when the light meter is set to indicate correct pairs of exposure time and diaphragm settings for a camera.

  • Patent number: 5960153
    Abstract: An image recording system comprising an electronic camera and an image recording method are provided by which influence of a recorded image of temporal fluctuations in intensity of light illuminating objects to be recorded is significantly reduced so that use of inexpensive light sources for illumination of the objects is possible.
