Slide Scanner: An Efficient Strategy To Digitize Your Old Shots

A slide scanner is a machine that can be connected to your computer or notebook which reads a traditional 35mm slide and gives you with a digital copy of the photo. Those tools could be tiny stand alone gadgets which are specific to the purpose of scanning slides, or they may be an attachment to a standard flat bed scanner.

Slide scanners are becoming increasingly more popular as increasingly more people take up digital photography and realize that they do not have electronic versions of their old photos. The benefit of scanning a slide vs scanning a photo is that there seems to be much better definition and much less noise in the resulting photograph.

There are many slide scanners available which vary in price from a very low budget to very high price, as is the way with most things today and you actually do get what you pay for. If you do need to spend some extra money its possible to have a 35mm slide scanner, which has a built in drum that automatically feeds the slides into the scanner in almost the same way as an old slide projector would.

This type of auto-feed scanner would be worth the investment, should you've a large quantity of slides to scan. Another benefit of scanning those old slides is that you could then tweak the resulting images using program such as Photoshop, that is something that would have been unknown when the pictures were originally taken.

For this exact reason a slide scanner would be the best gift for any enthusiastic photographer who has shifted from a normal 35mm SLR to a latest Digital SLR camera and who's now comfortable using software to get just the appropriate picture.

Line Scanner for Fingerprinting and Vein Mapping. $115.71 Fingerprints are the most common biometric measure taken, and in recent years electronic fingerprint scanning has become commonplace. Although contactless fingerprinting methods are used, it is more common that the fingerprint is taken by pressing the finger against a computer scanner. In the current study, the advantages of the contactless technique are combined with the very promising attributes of line scanning. Line scanner views each portion of the finger perpendicularly, therefore removing the projection errors of conventional flat scanning. The three dimensional image of a finger is recorded in pixelthick lines by scanning the camera around the finger. The final image captures an uncoiled view of the finger. Emerging technology for biometric identification is based on storing the blood vessel map in the finger. We developed a system where line scanning of finger ridges in conventional light is taken as the camera goes clockwise around a finger and in the Infrared light the image of blood vessels is recorded as the camera goes back to its initial position. Also discussed in this study are two new algorithms for fingerprint recognition. The first one is called Spaced Frequency Transformation Algorithm (SFTA) which is based on the Fourier Transform principle and the second one is called Line Scan Algorithm (LSA) which is based on the correlation principle. Both these algorithms have shown good recognition rates when it comes to partial as well as full fingerprints.
