Description
本創作係關於一種掃描器,特別是有關於一種自動記錄和備份操作記錄的掃描器。This creation is about a scanner, especially a scanner that records automatic recording and backup operations.
掃描器是一種影像捕獲裝置,可將影像轉換為電腦可以顯示、編輯、儲存和輸出的數位格式,如JPEG、JPG、TIFF、MTIFF、或PDF等格式。掃描器的應用範圍很廣泛,例如:可將美術圖形和照片掃描結合到一文檔中;亦可將印刷文字掃描輸入到文書處理軟體中,以避免再重新打字;或將傳真檔掃描輸入到資料庫軟體或文書處理軟體中予以儲存;以及在多媒體中加入影像等等。隨著辦公環境中網際網路的流行和普及,多數人可共用在網路之間的單個裝置,例如網路掃描器裝置或印表機等。早期的掃描器由掃描頭、控制電路和機械部件組成,採取逐行掃描方式,得到的數位信號以點陣的形式保存,再使用檔案編輯軟體將它編輯成標準格式的文本來進行儲存。現今的掃描器仍是一種電腦外部儀器設備,作為圖像的捕獲和輸入裝置,必須通過電腦進行顯示、編輯、儲存和輸出。例如:掃描器可對照片、文本頁面、圖紙、美術圖畫、照相底片、菲林軟片,甚至紡織品、標牌面板、印製 板樣品等三維物件都可作為掃描物件,提取和將原始的線條、圖形、文字、照片、平面實物等再通過電腦轉換成可以編輯的格式和形式。A scanner is an image capture device that converts images into digital formats that the computer can display, edit, store, and output, such as JPEG, JPG, TIFF, MTIFF, or PDF. Scanners can be used in a wide range of applications, such as combining art graphics and photo scanning into a single document; scanning text into a word processing software to avoid re-typing; or scanning a fax file into a document Store in library software or word processing software; add images to multimedia, and more. With the popularity and popularity of the Internet in an office environment, most people can share a single device between the networks, such as a network scanner device or a printer. The early scanner consisted of a scan head, a control circuit, and mechanical components. The progressive scan method was used, and the resulting digital signal was saved in a dot matrix format, and then edited into a standard format text for storage using the file editing software. Today's scanners are still a computer-based instrumentation that acts as an image capture and input device that must be displayed, edited, stored, and exported by a computer. For example: the scanner can be used for photos, text pages, drawings, art drawings, photographic film, film film, even textiles, signage panels, printing Three-dimensional objects such as plate samples can be used as scanning objects to extract and convert original lines, graphics, texts, photos, and flat objects into a editable format and form.
就目前而言,掃描器的發展大致經歷了四個階段的發展歷程;在1984年前後,第一代平板式掃描器面世,第一代的掃描器其功能局限於僅掃描黑白文字和簡單黑白線條圖形,其輸入速度和輸出速度都比較慢,解析度也較低,裝置體積較大,使用不方便;但在掃描器問世後便擁有廣泛的市場應用價值和市場前景。在不久的1986年很快推出了第二代掃描器,在第一代掃描器的基礎之上,第二代的掃描器增加了黑白灰階的功能,可以掃描具有灰階變化的黑白圖像,使得掃描的黑白圖像在影像檔輸出時富有層次感,圖像更加真實。很快在1989年推出了第三代掃描器,掃描器進入了彩色時代,彩色掃描器能夠掃描彩色印刷品和彩色照片,並輸出彩色圖片格式給電腦進行編輯處理。而隨著其他辦公設備的發展和普及,1996年發展成***掃描器,將掃描器與印表機、傳真機整合,使掃描器兼具有了一些複印、傳真、列印的功能,但仍作為電腦的週邊設備,其各項功能必須借助電腦才能完成。For now, the development of scanners has gone through four stages of development; before and after 1984, the first generation of flatbed scanners was introduced, and the first generation of scanners was limited to scanning only black and white text and simple black and white. Line graphics, their input speed and output speed are relatively slow, the resolution is also low, the device is large, and the use is inconvenient; but after the advent of the scanner, it has a wide market application value and market prospects. In the near future, the second generation of scanners was introduced in 1986. Based on the first generation of scanners, the second generation of scanners added black and white grayscale functions to scan black and white images with grayscale changes. So that the scanned black and white image is layered when the image file is output, and the image is more realistic. The third generation of scanners was introduced in 1989, and the scanner entered the color era. Color scanners were able to scan color prints and color photographs, and output color image formats for editing. With the development and popularization of other office equipment, it developed into a fourth-generation scanner in 1996, integrating the scanner with a printer and a fax machine, so that the scanner has some functions of copying, faxing, and printing. However, as a peripheral device of a computer, its functions must be completed by means of a computer.
目前資訊化是大趨勢,包括掃描器在內的輸入裝置的資訊化過程是不可或缺的,在網路資訊技術迅速發展的今天,需要一種主動型、智慧型、便攜性的掃描器,擺脫其對網路電腦的功能依賴,不再作為電腦的週邊設備、附屬設備,成為相對獨立的網路設備,即為使用者可獨立使用的、資訊傳輸安全的、使用功能完善簡便的、與網路“雲”功能緊密匹配的掃描器,來完成資 訊捕獲、快速轉換、發送存檔或列印、記錄保存、雲端儲存等多種功能,而傳統的掃描器作為一種週邊設備、輸入裝置的角色已遠遠不能滿足市場的需求。現有技術掃描器僅作為圖像捕獲和圖像輸出工具,功能單一,遠遠不能滿足現***公過程的對網路掃描器的要求,尤其是在需要大量掃描發送檔的工作環境下,由於掃描器的儲存器和儲存空間是一定的,在大量進行掃描發送操作或短時間內多次對掃描器操作後,將使掃描器的工作效率將大大降低,更有甚至會發生儲存器不足的情況,將導致掃描器無法繼續工作,這是目前掃描器領域內急需解決的重要技術問題。At present, informationization is a general trend. The informationization process of input devices including scanners is indispensable. In today's rapid development of network information technology, an active, intelligent and portable scanner is needed to get rid of It relies on the function of the network computer and is no longer used as a peripheral device or an accessory device of the computer. It becomes a relatively independent network device, that is, the user can use it independently, the information transmission is safe, and the function is simple and convenient. The road "cloud" function closely matches the scanner to complete the funding Information capture, fast conversion, send archive or print, record storage, cloud storage and many other functions, and the role of traditional scanners as a peripheral device, input device is far from meeting the needs of the market. The prior art scanner is only used as an image capture and image output tool, and has a single function, which is far from meeting the requirements of the network scanner of the modern office process, especially in a work environment requiring a large number of scan transmission files, due to the scanner. The storage and storage space is certain. After a large number of scanning and sending operations or multiple operations on the scanner in a short time, the working efficiency of the scanner will be greatly reduced, and even the shortage of the storage will occur. This will cause the scanner to continue to work. This is an important technical problem that needs to be solved urgently in the field of scanners.
