A Tip on Scanning TEM Negatives with Flatbed Scanners

Evaluation method of ordinary flatbed scanners for quantitative density analysis.

Photo Repair and 3D Structure from Flatbed Scanners

We introduce a technique that allows 3D information to be captured from a conventional flatbed scanner. The technique requires no hardware modification and allows untrained users to easily capture 3D datasets. Once captured, these datasets can be used for interactive relighting and enhancement of surface detail on physical objects. We have also found that the method can be used to scan and repa...

Using Flatbed Scanners to Collect High-resolution Time-lapsed Images of the Arabidopsis Root Gravitropic Response

Research efforts in biology increasingly require use of methodologies that enable high-volume collection of high-resolution data. A challenge laboratories can face is the development and attainment of these methods. Observation of phenotypes in a process of interest is a typical objective of research labs studying gene function and this is often achieved through image capture. A particular proc...

A study of GafChromic XR Type R film response with reflective‐type densitometers and economical flatbed scanners

The GafChromic XR Type R film is a relatively new product for recording high radiation dose in interventional radiological procedures. Means of measuring the film response were studied in this investigation. Two handheld reflective-type densitometers of different models were compared in the range of 0-8 Gy. They were found to be in excellent agreement. Five reflective flatbed scanners of differ...

Colour analysis of inhomogeneous stains on textile using flatbed scanning and image analysis

This paper describes a method for the determination of the colour of inhomogeneous stains on textile using flatbed scanning (FBS) and image analysis (IA). The method can be used to assess the cleaning performance of laundry detergent products. Stains on textile were visualised using a standard flatbed scanner. A fully automatic procedure was developed using image analysis (IA) software. Differe...
