  • Publication number: 20060215231
    Abstract: An efficient method and system to enhance digital acquisition devices for analog data is presented. The enhancements offered by the method and system are available to the user in local as well as in remote deployments yielding efficiency gains for a large variety of business processes. The quality enhancements of the acquired digital data are achieved efficiently by employing virtual reacquisition. The method of virtual reacquisition renders unnecessary the physical reacquisition of the analog data in case the digital data obtained by the acquisition device are of insufficient quality. The method and system allows multiple users to access the same acquisition device for analog data. In some embodiments, one or more users can virtually reacquire data provided by multiple analog or digital sources. The acquired raw data can be processed by each user according to his personal preferences and/or requirements.

  • Patent number: 6370277
    Abstract: According to the present invention, an image processing system for processing scanned images using a user predefined parameters and acceptable tolerances. When a scanned image falls outside the scope of the predefined parameter tolerances, the system invokes a real-time user interactive process which involves a continuous looping back process comprising prompting the user for image setting data, loading the image data from a fast memory device such as a cache, generating processed image data and displaying the processed image data on a display terminal, prompting the user for acceptance of the processed image data. This process loops back to the beginning until the user accepts the processed image data. This invention provides the user with an efficient and time saving method of scanning documents by precluding the user having to physically reload the document into the scanner should the scanned quality be unacceptable, and an interactive method to set the attributes of a paper scanner.
