Image processing methods and systems for fine art reproduction
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for processing images comprising the steps of:
- capturing a target image;
capturing an image of a reference;
measuring reflectance functions of said target image; and
processing said captured target image, based on said measured reflectance functions and said captured image of said reference, to calculate a correction transform associated with said captured target image.

Abstract
A method and system for processing images to, for example, capture artwork includes capturing a target image and an image of a reference. The reflectance functions of the target image are then measured. The target image is processed, using the measured reflectance functions and the captured image of the reference, to calculate a correction transform associated with the captured target image.

19. A computer-readable medium, containing data for reproducing a plurality of images, comprising:
-
a plurality of data structures, each associated with one of said plurality of images, each data structure including;
a set of pixel values associated with an image; and
a corresponding correction transform associated with said image wherein a corresponding correction transform associated with a first one of said plurality of images is different than a corresponding correction transform associated with a second one of said plurality of images. - View Dependent Claims (20)
