IMAGE SCANNING APPARATUS, SHADING CORRECTION METHOD, AND SHADING CORRECTION PROGRAM

摘要

A technique is provided that can realize highly accurate shading correction with a simple configuration. A light amount of illumination light on a predetermined illumination target by a light source is controlled such that reflected light having a first luminance value as predetermined black reference data, reflected light having a second luminance value as predetermined white reference data, and reflected light having another luminance value as at least one value between the first luminance value and the second luminance value can be obtained. Information concerning the luminance of reflected light obtained by illuminating the predetermined illumination target with the light source, the light amount of which is controlled, is acquired. Shading correction is performed on the basis of the acquired information.
