Method for automatically generating a dynamic digital metadata record from digitized hardcopy media
The present disclosure relates to automatically generating a dynamic set of metadata from digitized hardcopy media. The technique includes scanning the image side and non-image side of a plurality of hardcopy media. A dynamic digital metadata record of each of the plurality of hardcopy media is created and used for manipulating each of the plurality of hardcopy media.
1. A method for generating an image transform, comprising:
scanning an image side and a non-image side of a plurality of hardcopy media;
comparing the scanned non-image sides of a first and a second images; and
determining an image transform based on the comparison of the scanned non-image sides of the first and second images;
applying the image transform to the first or second images.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein comparing the scanned non-image sides further comprises:
determining whether the first and second images are in a common event grouping based on the comparison of the scanned non-image sides of the first and second images; and
determining the image transform based on the scanned first and second images when the first and second images are determined to be in the common event grouping.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein applying the image transform further comprises modifying the orientation of the first or second image.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein applying the image transform further comprises modifying the color of the first or second images.
5. The system of claim 1 , where wherein a processor modifies a color of the first image.
6. A system for generating an image transform, comprising:
a scanner means for digitizing an image side and a non-image side of a plurality of hardcopy media;
a processor means for determining an image transform for a first image on a first of the plurality of hardcopy media based on the scanned non-image side of the first image and applying the image transform to the first image; and
wherein the processor means for determining the image transform further comprises a circuit for comparing the scanned non-image sides of a second image of a second of the plurality of hardcopy media and the first image, and determining the image transform based on the comparison.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the processor means further determines whether the first image and second image are in a common event grouping based on the comparison of the scanned non-image sides of the first and second images, and based on the scanned first and second images, creates the image transform when the first and second images are determined to be in the common event grouping.
8. The system of claim 6 , wherein the processor means modifies the orientation of the first image.
