Abstract:
1. An image sensor system, comprising: a plurality of light sources for illuminating a document surface with light beams of red, green, and blue respectively having a wave length substantially equal to 480 nm, 545 nm, and 640 nm; an optical system for condensing light reflected fromsaid surface of said document; a plurality of light sensors provided in an image formation section of said optical system and detecting condensed light from said optical system, said plurality of light sensors being provided for reading an image of said document by outputting electrical signals corresponding to detected light from said optical system; and a reading device for receiving electrical signals from said plurality of light sensors at a predetermined cycle in synchronism with lighting of said plurality of light sources to thereby receive image information of said document, wherein said image information of said document is read out from said reading device as serial electrical signals corresponding to each wavelength of said plurality of light sources.
