An image sensor repeatedly receives a light from an object through a lens and generates images of the object. A differential image generating unit generates a differential image from at least two images. A detector detects a change cycle or an intensity of an external light. An evaluation unit evaluates an influence of the external light and derives an optimal timing in which a minimum influence of the external light is attained. A controller controls a timing of receiving the light of the image sensor, depending upon the optimal timing derived by the evaluation unit, and repeatedly synchronizes a term of two timings with the change cycle of the external light by shifting the term into the change cycle by a unit of predetermined phase difference.

Apparatus to synchronize change cycle of external light and associated methodology

A base sequence detection apparatus is provided with a channel formed on a base sequence detection chip. Working electrodes are formed along the channel and include a probe immobilized thereon, counter electrodes are formed on the inner surface of the channel and, reference electrodes are formed on the inner surface of the channel. An introduction port introduces solution or air from the upstream side of the channel, a delivery port delivers the solution or air in the channel, and the sample is injected into the channel through a sample injection port.

An image input apparatus. A detection section detects a change cycle of an intensity of an external light inputted to a camera. A timing control section synchronizes the change cycle of the intensity of the xternal light with a plurality of input timings of the camera by changing a phase difference in order. An evaluation section compares each storage quantity of the external light inputted to the camera at the plurality of input timings synchronized by the timing control section for each phase difference. A selection section selects the phase difference whose difference of the storage quantities of the external light is smallest from all phase difference changed by the timing control section.

A method and an apparatus for multi-window display with enhanced window manipulation facilities. In the apparatus, window images to be displayed in multi-window display are stored in a bit map memory. Various image processing operations are performed on the window images stored in the bit map memory, by regarding the window images as graphic images. Appropriate sections of processed window images are transferred to a frame buffer by using a bit block transfer device, and the image in the frame buffer is displayed on a display device.

An image forming apparatus providing color images excellent in both color reproduction and in density and sharpness of line images of characters or the like. The inventive image forming apparatus includes both a color image forming unit, which forms a latent image on a photosensitive material by the utilization of a chemical reaction, and a monochromatic electrophotographic unit. The color photosensitive material used in the color image forming unit may be a silver halide photosensitive material, a photosensitive resin material, or a photosensitive/pressure-sensitive material.

Image forming apparatus

A method of disposing of the leading end of a roll of photosensitive medium in which a leading end portion of the photosensitive medium that gets fogged due to exposure to light is cut and discharged from the processing route of the photosensitive medium before the development process; a first sheet of the photosensitive medium is cut in a predetermined size, including a leading end portion that gets fogged due to exposure to light, the part of this sheet which has not become fogged being exposed to a test pattern; or a first sheet of the photosensitive medium is cut in a size determined by summing the size of a leading end portion that gets fogged due to exposure to light and the size of a predetermined area of exposure.

A thermally developing apparatus for a light and pressure sensitive material. The exposed material is inserted between a rotating heated roller and an endless belt wrapped partially around the roller. Additionally, a temperature sensor detects abnormally high temperatures and, as a result, removes the material from the heated roller.

Thermal developing apparatus

A pressure image forming apparatus in which a sheet S of photo-sensitive and pressure-sensitive material is exposed to an original image, a sheet C of image fixing material is overlaid on the sheet S, and the image on the sheet S is transferred by a pair of pressure rolls 304, 312. One of the rolls is a hard roll having a multiplicity of small projections on its surface which rupture microcapsules on the sheet S to effect the image transfer to sheet C.

Image forming apparatus with microcapsule pressure rupture

A latent image on an exposed and developed sheet S of photosensitive material coated with microcapsules containing a color forming substance is transferred to a superposed image receiving sheet C by applying pressure to rupture some of the microcapsules. The applied pressure is selectively varied between at least two levels to attendantly control the color density of the transferred image.

Image forming apparatus with variable transfer pressure

An image recording apparatus employs a photo- and pressure-sensitive heat-developable material having a substrate and a layer formed on the substrate from a material which is photosensitive and heat-developable and which enables the developed image to be fixed by a pressure. The apparatus is constituted by an exposure device 8, 10 for exposing the photosensitive materials to an original image so as to form a latent image on the photosensitive material; a heat-developing device 40 for heating the photosensitive material so as to thermally set the portion of the photosensitive material carrying the latent image thus developing and immobilizing the image; a transfer device 70, 88 for superposing the photosensitive material after the development and an image receiving material C and pressing them to each other; and a heating device disposed upstream of the transfer device and adapted to heat at least one of the photosensitive material and the image receiving material.

Image recording apparatus and method

The developing section in an image recording apparatus includes a belt having a heater incorporated therein, and the exposed sensitive material and belt are wound together onto a take-up roll for thermally developing the image. After development, rotating the take-up roll in the reverse direction unrolls the sensitive material and allows it to be forwarded on for image transfer.

Heat developing device

A pressurizing image forming apparatus makes use of a photo- and pressure-sensitive heat-developable material including a substrate and a layer formed on the substrate from a heat-developable material which enables the developed image to be fixed by the application of pressure. The image on the exposed photosensitive material is developed by application of heat and then fixed by application of pressure onto an image receiving layer on the photosensitive material itself or a separate image-receiving sheet. The fixing of the image is effected by intermittant application of impact pressure by cooperation between an impact pressurizing means; and platen means disposed to oppose the impact pressurizing means.
