Abstract:
In a virtual slide scanner device, a stage supports a prepared slide in which a sample is fixed. A light source illuminates the prepared slide. An imaging device captures an image of the sample formed by an object lens. An X direction shifting mechanism and a Y direction shifting mechanism shifts a light beam in a two-dimensional direction in a light path from the object lens and the imaging device. A shift control unit controls the X direction shifting mechanism and the Y direction shifting mechanism. A signal processing unit produces a synthesized image by synthesizing shifted pixel images captured by the imaging device by shifting the light beam in the two-dimensional direction using the X direction shifting mechanism and the Y direction shifting mechanism.

Claim (Index 1):
An imaging device comprising:\n an optical system that forms an image of a subject; an imaging device that captures an image of the subject formed by the optical system; a two-dimensional shifting mechanism that shifts a light beam in a two-dimensional direction in a light path from the optical system to the imaging device; a shift control unit that controls the two-dimensional shifting mechanism; and a signal processing unit that produces a synthesized image by synthesizing shifted pixel images captured by the imaging device by shifting the light beam in the two-dimensional direction using the two-dimensional shifting mechanism.
