Image recognizing apparatus
First Claim
1. An image recognizing apparatus, comprising:
- an image scanner having;
a sensor for obtaining an image of a slip and a light intensity sensor for measuring intensity of light; and
an image processing apparatus connected to the image scanner having;
a communication control section for obtaining, when reading an image of the slip, first light intensity information of another image recognizing apparatus connected to a network from the image recognizing apparatus, and a control section for indicating the image scanner to read a slip, according to the first light intensity information from the image recognizing apparatus and second light intensity information from the light intensity sensor.

Abstract
In an image recognizing apparatus in which a plurality of stand-type image scanners using environmental light are connected respectively to client computers and the client computers are connected via a network to each other, when a scanner is started, the client computer connected thereto reads the event of start and reads in response thereto light intensity information of the associated scanner and light intensity information of one of the other scanners via its associated client computer and the network to determine light intensity. When the light intensity of the associated scanner is insufficient and that of the other scanner is sufficient, the client computer reads again light intensity information after a lapse of a predetermined period of time.
