[0108] Image processing method of the first embodiment

[0109] In the image processing method of the first embodiment of the present invention, in at least one of the image forming step and the image erasing step, the thermoreversible recording medium is set at a position farther than the focus position of the laser beam, and image recording and At least one of image erasure. When the thermoreversible recording medium is set at a position farther than the focus position of the laser beam and image recording is performed, in the image erasing step, the thermoreversible recording medium does not have to be set at a position farther than the focus position of the laser beam, and it is possible to utilize Heat sources other than laser beams. Among various heat sources, in the case of irradiating a thermoreversible recording medium with a laser beam to heat it and erasing an image recorded on the thermoreversible recording medium in a short time, it is preferable to apply an infr...

Abstract

The present invention provides an image processing method which includes any one of recording an image on a thermally reversible recording medium that can reversibly change any one of its transparency and color tone depending on temperature by irradiating and heating the thermally reversible recording medium with a laser beam, and erasing the image recorded on the thermally reversible recording medium by heating the thermally reversible recording medium, wherein in any one of the image recording and the image erasing, the thermally reversible recording medium is located at a position farther than a focal position of the laser beam, and at least any one of the image recording and the image erasing is performed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image processing method and an image processing device applicable to the image processing method. Background technique [0002] Hitherto, image recording and image erasing on a thermoreversible recording medium (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "recording medium" or "medium") has been performed by a contact method in which a heating source is brought into contact with the thermoreversible recording medium to heat the medium. of. As the heat source, in the case of image recording, a thermal head is generally used, and in the case of image erasing, a heating roller, a ceramic heater or the like is used. [0003] This contact recording method is advantageous because when the thermoreversible recording medium is composed of a flexible material such as film and paper, by uniformly pressing a heat source on the thermoreversible recording medium using a platen, Uniform image recording and image erasing, and by ...
