Abstract
An image inputting equipment wherein the images of the document are displayed on the transmission thin type display so that the images of the document may be visually superposed on the document corresponding to the images in according with the image information of the document and the positional information of the image inputting portion, and the images of the document to be displayed on the region where the image inputting portion in the transmission thin type display has already passed can be compared with real time with those of the document to be seen with the transmission of the region where the image inputting portion has not passed.
Claims7
In an image inputting equipment which includes an image inputting portion for scanning documents to read the image information on the documents, a thin transparent type display device having on one face thereof an image display means for displaying an image of the document on the thin transparent type display device in accordance with the image information on the document read by the image input portion, the improvement thereof comprising a position detecting means for detecting a position on the thin transparent type display device of the image inputting portion so as to output positional information, said image inputting portion disposed for free sliding operation along the reverse face of the thin transparent type display device and located between the thin transparent type display device and the document so as to illuminate and sense an image of the document which is disposed adjacent thereto, the image display means in response to the positional information outputted from the position detecting means and the image information read by the image inputting portion displaying an image of the document on the thin transparent type display device so as to enable the image and the document corresponding to the image to be visually superposed and compared in real time as said image inputting portion slides along said reverse face.
An image inputting equipment comprising an image inputting portion for scanning documents to read the image information on the documents, a thin transparent type display device, an image display means for displaying an image of a scanned document on said thin transparent type display in accordance with the image information on the document read by the image inputting portion, and a position detecting means for detecting a position on the thin transparent type display device of the image input portion so as to output the positional information, the image inputting portion disposed for sliding operation along one face of the thin transparent type display device so as to illuminate and sense an image of the document, said image inputting portion disposed between said one face of the thin transparent type display device and the document, whereby the image displaying means displays the image of the document such that the image and said scanned document are visually superposed in accordance with the positional information outputted from the position detecting means and the image information read by the image inputting portion and a processing means responsive to said image information read by said image inputting portion and the position detected by said position detecting means for recognizing characters in a first font read by said inputting means and translating said characters to a second character font.
