Abstract: An image enhancement system comprises a scanning device comprising a photosensor element having a plurality of different color channels. The system also comprises an exposure control module configured to vary an exposure time of the plurality of different color channels to generate at least two different exposure level scans of a media object. The system further comprises an imaging application configured to generate an enhanced scanned image of the media object using image data obtained from the at least two different exposure level scans.

Abstract: An imaging system comprising a scanning device having a fluorescent lamp and a secondary light source for illuminating a media object to be scanned, the secondary light source configured to emit light at a different frequency spectrum than the fluorescent lamp, a scanned image of the media object generated using image data obtained from at least one scan of the media object using light emitted by the fluorescent lamp and the secondary light source.
