Method of capturing and processing sensed images
A method of capturing and processing sensed images includes the step of sensing a viewed image to generate a viewed image signal carrying data representing the viewed image. The viewed image signal is communicated to a central processor. A printed data storage device on which optically detectable data representing an image processing program is printed is read to generate a program signal carrying data representing the program. The program signal is communicated to the central processor. The program is executed at the central processor so that the central processor carries out an image processing operation on the viewed image in accordance with instructions carried by the program to generate output image data.
1. A camera unit comprising:
an image sensor for capturing an image;
printhead for printing image data on a print medium;
a print medium pull sensor for sensing a pull force applied to the print medium; and
a guillotine is activated to cut the print medium upon the print medium pull sensor sensing a pull force.
2. The camera unit according to claim 1 further comprising:
an optical sensor for reading image processing instructions from a planar element having two-dimensional code printed thereon;
processor for processing captured images based upon the image processing instructions to generate output image data, wherein the
printhead prints the output image data.
3. The camera unit according to claim 1 further comprising:
a print roll for supplying the print medium to the printhead.
