Description
技术领域technical field
本实用新型涉及一种便携式电子记录笔,具体地,本实用新型涉及一种能够进行局域拍照和多行同时扫描的电子记录笔,从而可以快速采集和记录信息。The utility model relates to a portable electronic recording pen, in particular, the utility model relates to an electronic recording pen capable of local photographing and simultaneous scanning of multiple lines, so that information can be quickly collected and recorded.
背景技术Background technique
传统的便携式电子记录笔主要用于在阅读时对感兴趣的内容或者段落进行扫描,将其存储起来以便进行事后的编辑处理,或者直接在该电子记录笔中识别扫描的文字图像,产生与感兴趣的内容相一致的文字,从而实现纸件文字到电子文档的转化。The traditional portable electronic recording pen is mainly used to scan the content or paragraphs of interest when reading, and store it for editing later, or directly recognize the scanned text image in the electronic recording pen, and generate and feel. The content of interest is consistent with the text, so as to realize the transformation of paper text into electronic documents.
美国专利US 5574804公开了一种手持式扫描器,用于在阅读时扫描记录感兴趣的内容。该扫描器的工作过程是:扫描器中的字符扫描器件平行于纸件上的字符串运动,同时实现对串行字符的扫描,其中具有宽视场的线阵扫描器件安装在扫描器的侧面,用于对页面或者文件进行线扫描。另外,美国专利US 6619551也公开了一种具有线阵扫描器件的手持式扫描器,它先对页面的上半部分进行扫描,然后对页面的下半部分进行扫描,然后通过对上半部分图像和下半部分图像进行合成,从而得到整个的页面图像,能够以小幅面的扫描器实现对大幅面页面的扫描。U.S. Patent No. 5,574,804 discloses a hand-held scanner for scanning and recording interesting content while reading. The working process of the scanner is: the character scanning device in the scanner moves parallel to the character strings on the paper, and at the same time realizes the scanning of serial characters, in which the line scan device with a wide field of view is installed on the side of the scanner , used for line scanning of pages or documents. In addition, U.S. Patent US 6619551 also discloses a hand-held scanner with a line scan device, which first scans the upper half of the page, then scans the lower half of the page, and then scans the upper half of the image Combining with the lower part of the image to obtain the entire page image, it is possible to scan a large-format page with a small-format scanner.
但是,上面提到的两种技术都有相应的缺点。对于美国专利US5574804,存在的问题是,由于一行一行扫描,一方面造成扫描速度比较慢,另一方面使用者在使用过程中如果注意力不集中,容易造成遗漏。如果发生了后一种情况,使用者不得不重新扫描。对于美国专利US 6619551,存在的问题是,由于通过机械的方式来提供每次扫描的位置以防止重复扫描的问题,但是由于采用机械结构和线阵扫描的缘故,扫描速度很慢,难以满足实际应用的需要。However, both techniques mentioned above have corresponding disadvantages. For US Patent No. 5,574,804, there is a problem that due to scanning line by line, on the one hand, the scanning speed is relatively slow; If the latter case occurs, the user has to rescan. For U.S. Patent No. 6,619,551, the problem is that the position of each scan is mechanically provided to prevent repeated scanning, but due to the mechanical structure and linear scan, the scanning speed is very slow, which is difficult to meet the actual application needs.

下面参照图3和图6对本实用新型的便携式电子记录笔的扫描过程进行说明。图6示出了根据本实用新型的便携式电子记录笔在第一工作模式下进行扫描的示意图。The scanning process of the portable electronic recording pen of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG. 3 and FIG. 6 . Fig. 6 shows a schematic diagram of the scanning of the portable electronic recording pen in the first working mode according to the present invention.
例如,在阅读过程中,读者发现书籍文档中有若干句自己感兴趣的内容时,使用者通过模式切换单元8发出信号,确定便携式电子记录比笔工作在第一模式下,也就是扫描模式下。当使用者将面阵扫面器件1的成像窗口对准要扫描的字符行进行扫描时,按下开始/结束按键,面阵扫描器件1按照控制器3发出的控制信号以预定的时间间隔在水平方向上成像,在A/D转换器31中模数转换成数字信号,如图6所示,得到一系列图像子块A1,A2,A3,A4和A5,存储在存储器中,在扫描到达了页面的边缘之后发出信号停止扫描。其中,上述的相邻图像子块之间重叠了宽度d。然后,中央处理器32执行程序,在相邻的图像子块之间执行相关运算,以便在水平方向上将相邻的图像子块合成为第一宏块A,并且将合成的第一宏块A存储在存储器中。接下来,使用者按照与上述相同的方式扫描第一宏块下方的待扫描区域,得到第二宏块B,同样将第二宏块B存储在存储器中,其中第一宏块A和第二宏块B之间有预定的重叠宽度D。然后,中央处理器32执行程序,在第一宏块A和第二宏块B之间执行相关运算,以便在垂直方向上将第一宏块A和第二宏块B合成为一幅图像,如果使用者继续扫描,在按照与上述相同的方式将扫描得到的子块合成为宏块,直到使用者通过模式切换单元8将便携式电子记录笔的模式切换到了待机模式,表示整个扫描结束。然后将宏块合成为完整的一幅图像,存储在存储器7的数据区72中。有关通过在两个相邻的图像块之间执行相关运算来将所述相邻的图像块合成为一幅图像的技术,可以使用二维相关方法,或者先执行水平相关再执行垂直相关,以便确定两个图像块之间的位置关系。For example, during the reading process, when the reader finds that there are several sentences in the book document that he is interested in, the user sends a signal through the mode switching unit 8 to determine that the portable electronic recorder is working in the first mode, that is, in the scanning mode. . When the user aligns the imaging window of the area scan device 1 with the character line to be scanned and presses the start/stop button, the area scan device 1 will start at predetermined time intervals according to the control signal sent by the controller 3. Imaging in the horizontal direction, analog-to-digital conversion into digital signals in the A/
由上述可以看出,使用面阵扫描器件,可以同时采集两个维度的信息,使得信息采集或者图像扫描的速度大大加快。It can be seen from the above that using an area array scanning device can collect information in two dimensions at the same time, so that the speed of information collection or image scanning is greatly accelerated.
为了更进一步加快扫描速度,可以采用硬件来实现上述中央处理器所执行的程序。图4给出了本实用新型的控制器的另一实施例。下面结合图4和图6对本实用新型的便携式电子记录笔的扫描过程进行说明。In order to further speed up the scanning speed, hardware can be used to implement the above-mentioned programs executed by the central processing unit. Fig. 4 shows another embodiment of the controller of the present invention. The scanning process of the portable electronic recording pen of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with FIG. 4 and FIG. 6 .
在阅读过程中,读者发现书籍文档中有若干句自己感兴趣的内容时,使用者通过模式切换单元8发出信号,确定便携式电子记录比笔工作在第一模式下,也就是扫描模式下。当使用者将面阵扫面器件1的成像窗口对准要扫描的字符行进行扫描时,按下开始/结束按键,面阵扫描器件1按照控制器3发出的控制信号以预定的时间间隔在水平方向上成像,在A/D转换器31中模数转换成数字信号,如图6所示,得到一系列图像子块A1,A2,A3,A4和A5,存储在第一缓存器34中,在扫描到达了页面的边缘之后发出信号停止扫描。其中,上述的相邻图像子块之间有重叠了宽度d。然后,第一相关器35在相邻的图像子块之间执行相关运算,以便在水平方向上将相邻的图像子块合成为第一宏块A,并且将合成的第一宏块A存储在第二缓存器36中。接下来,使用者按照与上述相同的方式扫描第一宏块下方的待扫描区域,得到第二宏块B,并且将第二宏块B存储在第二缓存器37中,其中第一宏块A和第二宏块B之间有预定的重叠宽度D。然后,第二相关器38在第一宏块A和第二宏块B之间执行相关运算,以便在垂直方向上将第一宏块A和第二宏块B合成为一幅图像,如果使用者继续扫描,在按照与上述相同的方式将扫描得到的子块合成为宏块,直到使用者通过模式切换单元8将便携式电子记录笔的模式切换到了待机模式。然后将宏块合成为完整的一幅图像,存储在存储器7的数据区72中。During the reading process, when the reader finds that there are several sentences in the book document that he is interested in, the user sends a signal through the mode switching unit 8 to confirm that the portable electronic recorder works in the first mode, that is, in the scanning mode. When the user aligns the imaging window of the area scan device 1 with the character line to be scanned and presses the start/stop button, the area scan device 1 will start at predetermined time intervals according to the control signal sent by the controller 3. Imaging in the horizontal direction, analog-to-digital conversion into digital signals in the A/
使用这种全硬件的结构,由于无需频繁在中央处理器和存储器件存取数据,所以可以使扫描速度更快。Using this all-hardware structure, since there is no need to frequently access data in the central processing unit and storage devices, the scanning speed can be made faster.
此外,上述的扫描是水平扫描,将水平扫描并且合成得到的第一宏块与第二宏块在垂直方向上合成。但是这只是本实用新型的一个实施例,当然可以在垂直方向上扫描,将垂直扫描并且合成得到第一宏块与第二宏块在水平方向上合成。所以,在下面的描述中,将扫描方向称为第一方向(水平/垂直),将宏块的合成方向称为第二方向(垂直/水平),其中第一方向垂直于第二方向。In addition, the above scanning is horizontal scanning, and the horizontally scanned and synthesized first macroblock and the second macroblock are synthesized in the vertical direction. However, this is only an embodiment of the present invention. Of course, it is possible to scan in the vertical direction, and combine the first macroblock and the second macroblock obtained by vertical scanning and synthesis in the horizontal direction. Therefore, in the following description, the scanning direction is referred to as the first direction (horizontal/vertical), and the synthesis direction of macroblocks is referred to as the second direction (vertical/horizontal), wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.
下面结合图7描述本实用新型的扫描方法。图7示出了根据本实用新型的扫描方法的详细流程图。The scanning method of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with FIG. 7 . Fig. 7 shows a detailed flowchart of the scanning method according to the present invention.
如图7所示,S2到S6描述了本实用新型的便携式电子记录笔在第一工作模式下的流程,S7到S10描述了在第二工作模式下的流程。在步骤S1,判断使用者想要将便携式电子记录笔置于第一工作模式还是第二工作模式。在判断为“是”的情况下,在步骤S2,在第一方向进行扫描得到多个第一子块,并且合成多个第一子块,得到第一宏块。接下来,在步骤S3,在第一方向进行扫描得到多个第二子块,并且合成多个第二子块得到第二宏块。在步骤S4,在与第一方向垂直的第二方向上合成第一宏块和第二宏块,得到一幅图像。在步骤S5,判断整个扫描过程是否完成,如果没有,回到步骤S3,重复执行。如果整个扫描过程完成,则在步骤S6将扫描最终得到图像存储在存储器7中。As shown in FIG. 7 , S2 to S6 describe the process of the portable electronic recording pen of the present invention in the first working mode, and S7 to S10 describe the process in the second working mode. In step S1, it is determined whether the user wants to put the portable electronic recording pen in the first working mode or the second working mode. If the judgment is "Yes", in step S2, scan in the first direction to obtain a plurality of first sub-blocks, and synthesize the plurality of first sub-blocks to obtain a first macroblock. Next, in step S3, scan in the first direction to obtain a plurality of second sub-blocks, and synthesize the plurality of second sub-blocks to obtain a second macroblock. In step S4, the first macroblock and the second macroblock are synthesized in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction to obtain an image. In step S5, it is judged whether the entire scanning process is completed, if not, return to step S3, and execute repeatedly. If the entire scanning process is completed, the image finally obtained by scanning is stored in the
另一方面,如果在步骤S1得到的判断结果是“否”,则表明使用者想要对整个页面进行拍照。接下来,在步骤S7,控制器3向取景器2发出控制信号,取景器2中的驱动机构23按照控制器3的控制信号,驱动光学系统22,改变成像参数,例如,焦距,使得取景器2工作在第二模式下。然后,使用者将便携式电子记录笔对准要拍照的页面,在步骤S8,通过取景框21观察整个页面是否处于光学系统22的成像区域之中。如果待拍照的页面未完全处于成像区域之中时,在步骤S9,使用者调节便携式电子记录笔与要拍照的页面之间的位置关系,知道整个页面处于成像区域之中。然后在步骤S10,使用者按下快门,对待拍照的页面进行拍照,然后将采集的图像信息存储在存储器7的数据区72中。On the other hand, if the judgment result obtained in step S1 is "No", it indicates that the user wants to take a photo of the entire page. Next, in step S7, the controller 3 sends a control signal to the viewfinder 2, and the driving mechanism 23 in the viewfinder 2 drives the optical system 22 according to the control signal of the controller 3 to change imaging parameters, such as the focal length, so that the viewfinder 2 works in the second mode. Then, the user points the portable electronic recording pen at the page to be photographed, and in step S8, observes through the viewfinder frame 21 whether the entire page is in the imaging area of the optical system 22 . If the page to be photographed is not completely within the imaging area, at step S9, the user adjusts the positional relationship between the portable electronic recording pen and the page to be photographed, knowing that the entire page is within the imaging area. Then in step S10 , the user presses the shutter, takes a photo of the page to be photographed, and then stores the captured image information in the
