INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240211184 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a method for setting inspection levels for determining the quality of an image of an inspected surface of a printed sheet. The inspection levels are based on a comparison between a captured image of the inspected surface and a reference image. When there are overlapping regions in the inspection regions set for the reference image, the inspection level of the overlap region is identified based on a predetermined priority and displayed.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Setting inspection levels based on a comparison between captured and reference images.
  • Identifying inspection levels for overlapping regions based on predetermined priority.
  • Displaying the identified inspection levels for overlap regions.

Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in quality control processes for printed materials, such as newspapers, magazines, packaging, and labels.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for efficient and accurate quality control in the printing industry by setting inspection levels based on image comparisons.

Benefits:

  • Improved quality control processes.
  • Enhanced accuracy in determining image quality.
  • Increased efficiency in identifying inspection levels.

Commercial Applications: The technology can be used in printing companies, packaging industries, and any other sector that requires precise quality control of printed materials.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this technology improve the quality control process in the printing industry? 2. What are the specific benefits of setting inspection levels based on image comparisons?

Frequently Updated Research: There may be ongoing research in the field of image processing and quality control in the printing industry that could further enhance this technology.


Original Abstract Submitted

in a case where an inspection level to be used in determining quality of an image of an inspected surface of a printed sheet is set based on a comparison between a captured image resulting from imaging the inspected surface and a reference image, a plurality of inspection regions varying in inspection level is set for the reference image. in a case where an overlap region is present in the plurality of inspection regions, an inspection level of the overlap region is identified based on a predetermined priority. further, the identified inspection level of the overlap region is displayed.
