A self-contained mobile optical scanning system having an image scanner contained within a hollow inside space defined by mated engagement of an upper housing and a lower housing having corresponding upper and lower transparent windows having reduced margins and a scanning control interface rotatable through the enclosed space which allows scanning through the upper transparent window in either the upright or inverted condition by alignment of viewable indicator marks and overlap indicators in relation to an article which allows stitched alignment of a plurality of scanning cycles to generate images embeddable with metadata or data files.

Mobile optical scanning system

An image sound annotation system including an image capture device having an input-output port which receives a secure digital memory card including an image audio annotation program which can be used with an audio capture device to store an image file in association with a audio file in a memory element for subsequent retrieval and display of an image associated with the image file with concurrent playback of the sound associated with the audio file.

Still image sound annotation system

A power management system for a scanner device comprises an onboard power source and an interface port adapted to receive power from a remote host. The system also comprises a power manager accessible by a processor and adapted to automatically determine whether to draw power for an operating-mode from the onboard power source or the remote host.

Scanner power management system and method

The invention discloses a system and method for an optical imaging device comprising an image sensor for reading image data from an original slid over the image sensor, a variable power interface for varying an intensity of an illumination source corresponding to the image sensor, wherein the intensity is varied responsive to velocities of the original slid over the image sensor, and a processor for processing the image data.
