INSPECTION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240345781 titled 'INSPECTION SYSTEM
The abstract describes an inspection system that includes an image-forming unit, a reading unit, and a controller. The controller obtains reference image data for image inspection, executes the inspection based on the reference data, and controls a display to show a preview screen related to the inspection. If the image includes a mark indicating a trimming position, the preview screen includes a main image with the mark and an additional image showing a second region beyond the sheet's first region.
- Image-forming unit forms an image on a sheet
- Reading unit reads the image on the sheet
- Controller obtains reference image data for inspection
- Controller executes image inspection based on reference data
- Controller controls display to show a preview screen
- Preview screen includes main image with trimming mark
- Additional image indicates a second region beyond the sheet's first region
Potential Applications: - Quality control in printing processes - Inspection of documents for accuracy and completeness - Verification of markings on sheets for trimming purposes
Problems Solved: - Ensures accurate inspection of images on sheets - Facilitates identification of trimming positions on sheets - Improves quality control processes in various industries
Benefits: - Enhanced accuracy in image inspection - Streamlined trimming processes - Increased efficiency in quality control procedures
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Image Inspection System for Quality Control in Printing and Document Processing" This technology can be used in printing companies, document processing facilities, and any industry requiring precise image inspection and trimming processes. The market implications include improved quality control, increased efficiency, and reduced errors in production processes.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the system differentiate between the main image and the additional image in the preview screen? 2. What are the potential cost savings for companies implementing this image inspection system?
Original Abstract Submitted
an inspection system includes an image-forming unit configured to form an image on a sheet, a reading unit configured to read the image formed on the sheet, and a controller. the controller obtains reference image data for image inspection, executes the image inspection on a result of reading the image based on the obtained reference image data, and controls a display to display a preview screen related to the image inspection. in a case where the image includes a mark indicating a trimming position of the sheet, the preview screen includes a main image that includes the mark, and an additional image that is added to the main image and indicates a second region outward of a first region corresponding to the sheet subjected to trimming.
