This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18303665 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an image processing apparatus that is used for inspecting print products. Here are the key points:

  • The apparatus obtains information about the local displacement between a first document image and a first read image.
  • The first read image is obtained by scanning a print product that is based on the first document image.
  • A reference image is generated by adding the local displacement to a second document image.
  • The reference image is used for comparison with a second read image to inspect the print product.
  • The second read image is obtained by scanning the print product based on the second document image.


Original Abstract Submitted

An image processing apparatus is provided. First information indicating a local displacement between a first document image and a first read image is obtained. The first read image is obtained by reading a print product based on the first document image. A reference image is generated. The reference image is obtained by adding the local displacement in accordance with the first information to a second document image. A second read image and the reference image is compared with each other to perform an inspection of a print product based on the second document image. The second read image is obtained by reading the print product based on the second document image.
