A digitizing device that digitizes by imaging a solid object generates three-dimensional data of the solid object by overlying second imaged data onto first imaged data on a basis of at least one node disposed inside a partial region in the first imaged data and at least one node included in the second imaged data.

Digitizing device and digitizing method

A book digitization apparatus includes an emitter that applies an energy ray to a book, a detector that detects an energy ray radiated from the book in response to a material existing in the book, and a three-dimensional data generator that generates data of a plurality of space points in accordance with the detected ray. The data of the space points associates position information of a position in a three-dimensional space within the book with a physical property value used to identify a layout pattern of the material at the position in a direction of thickness of the book.

Book digitization apparatus and book digitization method

A book electronization apparatus includes: a table capable of storing a type of ink and an absorption wavelength of an energy ray (X-ray) of the ink in association with each other; an acquisition unit that acquires, from the table, an absorption wavelength of an X-ray, which corresponds to an ink type that is input; and an image capturing unit that acquires three-dimensional data of a book by capturing an image of the book with the X-ray having the acquired absorption wavelength.

Book electronization apparatus and book electronization method

A book digitization apparatus includes: a table capable of storing a type of paper and a physical property of an energy ray, which the paper is able to absorb, in association with each other; an acquisition unit that acquires, from the table, a physical property of an energy ray, which corresponds to a type of paper that is input; and an image capturing unit that acquires three-dimensional data of a book by capturing an image of the book with an energy ray having the acquired physical property.
