The system incorporates two laser scanners, one for confocal imaging and the other for simultaneous stimulation. They can be illuminated separately and independently, making it possible to stimulate the specimen during observation. As a result, the rapid cell reactions that occur right after laser stimulation can be accurately and reliably captured, making the Sim Scanner concept ideal for such applications as Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching FRAP , Fluorescence loss in photobleaching FLIP , photoactivation and photoconversion.

Flatbed scanners often come in contact with at least part of the object to be scanned. They also require books to be fully opened most of the time there are some exceptions where the scanning surface ends at the edge of the flatbed scanner, so that a book can be opened partially .

It provides several benefits over using a flatbed scanner to scan in a print of any size the photographer has direct control over cropping and aspect ratio from the original, unmolested image on film and many film scanners have special software or hardware that removes wikt scratch scratch es and film grain and improves color reproduction from film. Film scanners can accept either strips of 35mm film 35 mm or 120 film 120 film, or individual Transparency photography slide s. Low end scanners typically only take 35mm film strips, while medium and high end film scanners often have interchangeable film loaders. This allows the one scanning platform to be used for different sizes and packaging. For example, some allow microscope slide s to be loaded for scanning, while mechanised slide loaders allow many individual slides to be batch scanned unattended. Dust and scratches Dust and scratches on the film can be a big problem for scanning. Because of their reduced size compared to prints the scanners are capable of resolutions much higher than a regular flatbed scanner typically at least 2000 samples per inch spi , up to 4000 spi or more. At these resolutions dust and scratches take on gigantic proportions. Even small specks of dust, invisible to the naked eye, can obscure a cluster of several pixels.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date December 2009 A rectilinear scanner is an medical imaging imaging device once used in nuclear medicine . History Before the invention of the rectilinear scanner in 1950 by Benedict Cassen, nuclear medicine pioneers used to move their insensitive Geiger counter Geiger Counters over different parts of the body, which resulted in a fairly crude determination of the distribution of Radioactive decay radioactivity . Components Image Rectilinear scanner.jpg The scanner consists of A scintillator which detects the radiation emitted by a Radiopharmacology radiopharmaceutical located in the organ. The detector consists of a Sodium iodide NaI Tl crystal 12.7 cm in diameter, 5 cm thick and a photomultiplier . It is mechanically connected to a light bulb. An electronic circuit between detector and light bulb. A Photographic film film . Mechanism NaI Tl crystal of the detector moves in a raster pattern over studied area of the patient, making a constant count rate. Simultaneously, the light source moves over the photographic film. The intensity of light produced increases with an increase in activity, producing dark areas on the film. Device can be modified electronically to enhance count rate differences in areas of medical interest. Data taken during a scan is recorded on a magnetic tape or a disc to be analyzed later by a computer to provide a quantitative image. Dimensions of scan areas, spacing of scan lines and rate of movement of scanning head is adjusted according to organ size and amount of radioactivity. Rectilinear scanner can scan the entire body. The image is then minified to fit a standard 36 cm x 43 cm film. As it uses a focused collimator , it measures radiation distribution 7.5 12.5 cm from the end of the collimator. Thus, a scan from both sides of the patient is often necessary. A few scanners ... a breakthrough.

A Push broom scanner along track scanner is a technology for obtaining satellite images with optical cameras. It is used for passive remote sensing from space. In a push broom sensor, a line of sensors arranged perpendicular to the flight direction of the spacecraft is used. Different areas of the surface are imaged as the spacecraft flies forward. A push broom scanner can gather more light than a whisk broom scanner because it looks at a particular area for a longer time, like a long exposure on a camera. One drawback of pushbroom sensors is the varying sensitivity of the individual detectors. These sensors are also known as survey or wide field devices, comparable to wide angle lenses on conventional cameras.

Wikify date February 2011 notability date February 2010 A robotic book scanner is a machine which is used to book scanning scan books , integrating automated components that allow the device to exceed the speed of traditional manual imaging devices such as camera stands. A robotic scanner usually consists of three basic parts a mechanical device to turn the pages a cradle or table to hold the book in place, and a camera or imaging sensor to capture images. Images are then automatically shuttled to a central computer repository, where automated processing may take place in order to perform cropping, de skewing, and other image enhancement functions. During the process, the book remains intact. Several high end commercial robotic scanners use traditional air and suction technology while others take advantage of optical sensor technology to separate and turn pages one at a time.
