Abstract:
A removable modular digital imaging apparatus for coupling with a photographic printer and for color correction of digital images, said apparatus comprising:a lamp house for generating an optical signal and modulating the spectral content of the optical signal; a digital imaging device positioned adjacent said lamp house, said digital imaging device receiving the modulated optical signal from said lamp house and transmitting a high brightness/high resolution optical signal based on said modulated optical signal; a lens system for focusing the transmitted optical signal from said digital imaging device onto photographic paper; a central processor for retrieving digital images and producing inverted digital images; a projection controller electrically connected to said digital imaging device for displaying the opened image file on said digital imaging device based on the inverted digital images; and a lamp house controller electrically coupled to said lamp house for determining and controlling the spectral content of the optical signal transmitted from said lamp house.
