Estimating the term…
One aspect of the invention is a system for digital dye color film processing. In one embodiment, a developer station applies a processing solution to film to initiate development of metallic silver grains and at least one dye image within the film. A scanning system illuminates the coated film with light having at least one frequency within the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The light interacts with the silver and at least one dye image within the film. The scanning station measures the light from the film and produces sensor data that is communicated to a data processing system. The data processing system processes the sensor data to produce a digital image. The digital image can then be output to an output device, such as a printer, monitor, memory device, and the like.
An improved digital film processing system comprising:
A system for developing and processing film to produce a digital image, the system comprising:
A system for digitizing a developed film coated with a processing solution, the system comprising:
A method for developing and digitizing exposed film having multiple emulsion layers containing silver halide, the method comprising:
A method of scanning a film having at least one dye image and silver disposed within the film, the method comprising:
A digital image produced by digitally processing film that has silver and at least one dye image within the film, the process comprising scanning the film with light having at least one frequency within the visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum and processing the scan data to produce the digital image.
