چکیده
We describe the design principles of a photometric flatbed scanner with a scan area of 250 X 250 mm2, a dynamic range of 4000 gray levels, a signal/noise ratio of 2000/1, a step size of 0.1 mm, and a step frequency of 2000 steps per second. It is controlled by a microcomputer and used to acquire data for quantitative evaluation of gels or chromatograms. The performance of the instrument is demonstrated by the data obtained by scanning gratings, gray step filters, and high-resolution electropherograms.

High performance CCD camera system for digitalisation of 2D DIGE gels
An essential step in 2D DIGE-based analysis of differential proteome profiles is the accurate and sensitive digitalisation of 2D DIGE gels. The performance progress of commercially available charge-coupled device (CCD) camera-based systems combined with light emitting diodes (LED) opens up a new possibility for this type of digitalisation. Here, we assessed the performance of a CCD camera syste...
متن کاملDesigning and developing an in-house CCD based optical CT scanner for gel dosimetry
Introduction: Measurement of the complex 3D radiation dose distribution created with advanced radiotherapy techniques such as IMRT and SRS became very important. Polymer gel dosimetry (PGD) is proposed method to recording this dose distribution. MRI, X-ray CT, ultrasound, spectrophotometry and optical CT scanners can be used for readout of Polymer gel dosimeters. Although MRI i...
متن کاملFit-sphere unwrapping and performance analysis of 3D fingerprints.
To solve problems associated with conventional 2D fingerprint acquisition processes including skin deformations and print smearing, we developed a noncontact 3D fingerprint scanner employing structured light illumination that, in order to be backwards compatible with existing 2D fingerprint recognition systems, requires a method of unwrapping the 3D scans into 2D equivalent prints. For the latt...
متن کاملA Deformed Shape Monitoring Model for Building Structures Based on a 2D Laser Scanner
High-rise buildings subjected to lateral loads such as wind and earthquake loads must be checked not to exceed the limits on the maximum lateral displacement or the maximum inter-story drift ratios. In this paper, a sensing model for deformed shapes of a building structure in motion is presented. The deformed shape sensing model based on a 2D scanner consists of five modules: (1) module for acq...
متن کاملMapping and Localization in 3D Environments Using a 2D Laser Scanner and a Stereo Camera
2D laser scanners have been widely used for accomplishing a number of challenging AI and robotics tasks such as mapping of large environments and localization in highly dynamic environments. However, using only one 2D laser scanner could be insufficient and less reliable for accomplishing tasks in 3D environments. The problem could be solved using multiple 2D laser scanners or a 3D laser scanne...
