Scanner is one of the computer peripherals that is widely used in various establishments such as offices, schools, laboratories, government offices, and other agencies both public and private. At this meeting I will discuss a little about the history of the scanners and meaning.
1. History Scanner
Historical development of scanners began in 1975, when Ray Kurzweil and his team create the Kurzweil Reading Machine Omni - Font software with OCR (Optical Character Recognition) Technology. This software identifies the existing text in the scanned object and translate it into data in text form.
From the early development of scanner technology that continues to evolve and eventually started to date with technology becoming increasingly advanced. Scanners are now able to be used to scan three-dimensional objects and negative film.
The shape and size of the scanner assortment, there is the magnitude of the size of the paper there is also a folio -sized postcard, even more recently, a new form of pen that was launched by the company WizCom Technologies Inc.. The pen-sized scanner can store up to 1,000 text pages printed and then transfer them to a personal computer ( PC ).
The pen-sized scanner called Quicklink. Pen -sized scanner was six inches long and weighs about three ounces. The scanner can do the job faster than the randomly shaped scanner flat. The data have been taken with the scanner, can be incorporated directly into computer applications that recognize all ASCII text.
At this time, the scanner is growing by leaps and bounds. There are so many outstanding scanner in the world with a variety of brands, including output scanners from Canon, Hewlett Packard ( HP ), EPSON, UMAX, Panasonic, Samsung, Fujitsu, Lexmark and many other brand scanners are growing rapidly as new discoveries scanner technology.
Scanner discovery strongly associated with the development of photography technology, and optical photocopy machine. Scanner inventor is Robert S. Ledley was born in Newyork, USA in 1926. Until finally in 1943 was born the CT scanner is capable of scanning the entire body from head to toe. The findings in the engine called the Automatic Computerized Transverse Axial ( ACTA ). Similarly, a brief history of the discovery and development of the scanner scanners from the beginning to the present invention a new scnner with different technologies and canngih been discovered and developed in the world by various Company as mentioned above.
2. What exactly Scanner that?
An electronic device that functions similar to a photocopier. Photocopiers results could be seen in the paper while the scanner results are displayed on the screen first and then a new computer can be changed and modified so that the view and the good results that can then be saved as text files, documents and images. Scanner is a tool that is used to scan a form and nature of objects, such as documents, photos, waves, temperature, mold is used to take images (pictures, photos, writings) to be processed or displayed through the computer.
The scan results will generally be transformed computer as digital data is data that has been captured by the scanner, can be incorporated directly into computer applications that recognize all ASCII text. Differences of each scanner of various brands lies in the use of technology and resolution. The use of technology such as the use of digital keys and lighting techniques.
