		By scanner window 105 being substantially in contact with document 103 is meant that the distance between scanner window 105 and document 103 is very small so that the document remains in focus even given the narrow depth of field of the optics in CIS 101.
		Scanner window 405 is located interior to and against the front (document) side of integral housing unit 441, and thus has a protruding part 449 that fits in the opening of the front side of housing unit 441.
		Conventional prior-art implementation scanners using a CIS often include a roller for maintaining contact between the document and the scanner window, and typically such a roller may be positioned to impart a force on the document forcing the document against the focal area.

		In CIS scanners this is accomplished by: 1) focusing through and onto the outer surface of a scanner window, and 2) dragging the document across the window, hence keeping it in focus during scanning.
		This aspect of the invention is contrasted with prior art scanners that include a spring arrangement to maintain contact between the document and the CIS unit.
		Scanner rollers 203 are substantially fixed relative to the body of scanning device 103, and the spring loaded platen moves away from the rollers, the movement being by the thickness of the document.

	United States Patent Application: 0040252352
		A scanner scans a document line by line, and then image data is transmitted from the scanner to a host computer connected to the scanner.
		The scanner 10 comprises a scanning module 12 used for scanning a document, a motor 16 for driving the scanning module 12 left and right inside the scanner 10, and a control circuit 14 for controlling operation of the scanning module 12 and the motor 16.
		If the scanner 10 scans the document 100 at 600 dpi (dots per inch), 30 seconds are typically required for the scanning module 12 to scan the document 100 while traveling in the first direction 101.

		The leaves on the ground had these incredible patterns, a thick band of red around the edges with cells of green and brown in the center, separated by thin veins of yellow.
		As I recall, this classmate mentioned using a fl, lightproof hood over her scanner to make the images, with flowers and other objects arranged on the scanner bed.
		I’ve got a tiny 4×6″ photo scanner, so I set a leaf down on the surface and held a fl towel over the top while it scanned.

	Line art, threshold, printed documents, text, OCR and copy
		The scanner makes a good copy machine when used with a laser or inkjet printer.
		A Line art 8.5 x 11 inch page at 300 dpi uses "only" one megabyte of memory, and 600 dpi would be 4 megabytes (however 600 dpi color would be 100 megs!).
		My frank opinion is that the free OCR software that comes free with most scanners is not very useful, it is too limited.

	Art and ICT
		The use of ICT in art education is pushing forward the boundary between traditional art forms and providing opportunities for students to express ideas in many different ways.
		Most art packages are extremely sophisticated, so it often helps to use just a small suite of functions within your chosen product.
		Art teachers soon develop an intuition for knowing when to intervene and when to stand back and let the pupil or pupils get on with the task.

		I played around with copier art in the early 1970s when I was in art school, mostly because everyone was interested in it but nobody really did it.
		One reason the images look so rich and unique is that the scanner lights it subject with a bar of light that travels with the sensor bar, thus simulating a light that stretches over every inch of the subject.

		She places them on an ordinary flatbed digital scanner (keeping the top open), draws the curtains in her cheerful, red-walled San Francisco studio, envelops herself in darkness and starts scanning away, carefully positioning and repositioning the items to capture them from unusual angles.
		Their almost spooky glow is a result of the scanner’s beam sweeping over the object in complete darkness, illuminating some areas brightly and trailing off mistily around the edges.
		After rising to become an art director there, Mitsch moved on to creative director positions at a couple of agencies and in 1996 formed her own design firm, DCL.

		The ECAT ART is on such design, representing a compromise between cost and sensitivity that results in a reduced-cost device with a sensitivity adequate for a wide range of clinical applications.
		Most PET scanners compromise stationary rings of detectors, and cost reduction for the ART scanner is achieved by eliminating 54% of the detectors and rotating the remaining detectors as two opposing arrays.
		The ECAT ART scanner can, therefore, provide additional clinical imaging capability at reasonable capital expenditure for a center with a well establised PET research program based on a full-ring tomograph, or offer dedicated PET imaging to a smaller medical center initiating a clinical PET program with limited capital investment.
