A method and apparatus is provided that lessens the unwanted effects of noise present at the input of an imaging system. By tapping a small portion of a laser input signal containing wavelengths of light corresponding to red, blue, and green of light used to scan the surface to be imaged, the tapped signal is used to generate three beams that correspond to the red, blue, and green content of the laser input signal. Signals generated at the output of the system that correspond to the color of the scanned surface are normalized with the signals that correspond to the three beams generated by the tapped signal. The normalized output signal indicative of the color of the surface is noise reduced; substantially most of any noise present at the input is eliminated from the output of the device.

Méthode et appareil atténuant les effets de bruit non désirés présents à l'entrée d'un système d'imagerie. Une petite partie d'un signal laser d'entrée contenant des longueurs d'onde lumineuses correspondant au rouge, au bleu et au vert de la lumière utilisée pour scanner la surface à représenter est prélevée afin de produire trois faisceaux qui correspondent au contenu rouge, bleu et vert du signal laser d'entrée. Les signaux de sortie du système qui correspondent à la couleur de la surface scannée sont normalisés avec les signaux qui correspondent aux trois faisceaux produits par le signal prélevé. Le bruit du signal de sortie normalisé indiquant la couleur de la surface est réduit; essentiellement la plus grande partie du bruit présent à l'entrée est éliminée à la sortie du dispositif.
