Patent number: 7432486Abstract: A microscope digital image acquiring system 1 includes a microscope 2 composed of a microscope unit 10 forming an enlarged image of an object O and a microscope controller 20 controlling movement of the microscope unit 10, an imaging instrument 3 composed of a camera head unit 30 that is attached to the microscope 2 and has an imaging device detecting the enlarged image of the object O and a camera controller 40 that receives a detected signal output from the imaging device and outputs image information of the object O. The microscope controller 20 and the camera controller 40 operate cooperatively in response to control commands sent externally. The system 1 has a connecting cable 52 connecting with both instruments 20 and 40 to carry out communication with each other. Both instruments 20 and 40 operate cooperatively by communicating control commands with each other through the connecting cable 52.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 2007Date of Patent: October 7, 2008Assignee: Nikon CorporationInventors: Takashi Tanemura, Tomotaka Shinoda

Publication number: 20020024638Abstract: An image input/output apparatus includes an image-capturing device that captures an image of a subject placed on a stage and a projection-type display device that generates an image based upon an input image signal and projects the image onto a screen. If the image-capturing device is detected to be in the operating state, an illuminating lamp and a projection lamp are turned on and one of the input terminals is selected at a selection means switch. Thus, the image signal from the image-capturing device is selected and an image based upon the image signal is projected from the projection-type display device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 27, 2000Publication date: February 28, 2002Inventors: Hirofumi Hidari, Satoru Sanada, Toshio Suzuki, Keiichi Nitta, Takashi Tanemura
