Patent ID: 8189965

Claim:
A scanner system, comprising: at least one processor; memory coupled to said at least processor; and instructions accessible from said memory by said at least one processor, wherein said instructions are configured for causing said at least one processor to: process sensor data received from a scanner, wherein said sensor data includes a plurality of image tiles and position indicating data defining a respective relative position of each one of said image tiles, wherein each one of said image tiles includes data representing a discrete portion of visual content of a scanned object; and display a feedback image derived from said image tile data, wherein causing said at least one processor to display the feedback image includes causing said at least one processor to display the discrete portion of said visual content of each one of said image tiles in a real-time or near real-time manner with respect to each one of said image tiles being generated and wherein causing said at least one processor to display the discrete portion of said visual content of each one of said image tiles includes causing said at least one processor to correlate the relative position of each one of said image tiles in the real-time or near real-time manner with at least one other image tile that has been previously generated and displayed.
