<p>A document scanner comprises first and second image sensor units (30,32), each having an array of electromagnetic radiation detectors (44) situated adjacent circuitry (42) for operating the detectors. A scanning mechanism (70,72,76,78,80) causes relative movement between the detectors and a document to cause the detectors to scan the document along a scanning direction. The array of detectors of the first unit (30) is situated ahead of the array of detectors of the second unit (32) in said scanning direction, the orientation of the detectors of the first unit with respect to their circuitry thus being the reverse of that of the detectors of the second unit, thereby to reduce the distance, in the scanning direction, between the two arrays.</p> |
