IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM AND CAMERA
First Claim
1. A camera comprising:
- a photography optical system which forms an object image;
an image pickup element section which outputs an image signal by picking up the object image formed by the photography optical system; and
a photography operation section which performs an image photography-related operation;
wherein the camera is operable in a plurality of image capture modes that capture an image of the object in a plurality of different aspects;
wherein the plurality of image capture modes includes a spectroscopic image mode in which a spectroscopic image of the object is captured; and
wherein the photography operation section comprises a photographic range setting section which sets a photographic range of the object.

Abstract
An image processing system which performs photography of the teeth of a patient while causing a plurality of illumination light LEDs of different wavelengths to emit light by means of a photography device when producing a crown repair or denture of the patient, whereby image data are acquired. The image data are transmitted to a dental filing system constituting a processing device where color reproduction data are determined through computation. In addition, color reproduction data are transmitted to the dental technician'"'"'s office via a public switched network. A repair material compound ratio calculation database is searched and compound data for a material that matches the hue of the patient'"'"'s teeth is retrieved, so that a crown repair or denture or the like that very closely matches the color of the patient'"'"'s teeth can be produced.
