INSPECTION APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18295312 Titled 'INSPECTION APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND STORAGE MEDIUM'
Simplified Explanation
The present invention is an inspection apparatus that includes a reading unit capable of reading a document. The apparatus compares a read image of a chart with a mark for acquiring distortion information, which is printed by a printing apparatus, to a reference image of the chart. By doing so, it generates distortion information based on the reading performed by the reading unit. The apparatus then corrects an inspection target image, obtained by the reading unit reading a printed matter from the printing apparatus, using the generated distortion information. The first corrected image is aligned with a reference image of the printed matter, and a second corrected image is compared with the reference image to inspect for any defects in the printed matter.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present invention provides an inspection apparatus including a reading unit configured to read a document. The inspection apparatus compares a read image obtained by the reading unit reading a chart including a mark for acquiring distortion information printed by a printing apparatus and a reference image serving as a correct image of the chart, and generates distortion information when reading by the reading unit; and corrects, using the generated distortion information, an inspection target image obtained by the reading unit reading a printed matter from the printing apparatus; aligns the first corrected image corrected in the correcting with a reference image of the printed matter; and compares a second corrected image aligned in the aligning with a reference image of the printed matter to inspect a defect of the printed matter.
