Patent number: 9894227Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a reading unit, an edge extraction unit, a feature point search unit, a document area size calculation unit, a user operation unit, and a multi-feed determination unit. The reading unit optically reads a document to generate image data. The edge extraction unit extracts an edge of the document from the image data. The feature point search unit searches edge data of the edge extracted by the edge extraction unit for a feature point. The document area size calculation unit calculates a document area size from the feature point found by the feature point search unit. The user operation unit is used by a user to specify a document size. The multi-feed determination unit compares the document area size calculated by the document area size calculation unit with the user-specified document size so as to determine whether multi-feed of the document has occurred.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2016Date of Patent: February 13, 2018Assignee: RICOH COMPANY, LTD.Inventor: Takumi Akiyama
