Systems and methods of the present disclosure relate generally to facilitate performing a task on a surface such as woodworking or printing. More specifically, in some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to mapping the surface of the material and determining the precise location of a tool in reference to the surface of a material. Some embodiments relate to obtaining and relating a design with the map of the material or displaying the current position of the tool on a display device. In some embodiments, the present disclosure facilitates adjusting, moving or auto-correcting the tool along a predetermined path such as, e.g., a cutting or drawing path. In some embodiments, the reference location may correspond to a design or plan obtained from obtained via an online design store.

An image forming apparatus includes a conveyance part, an image forming part, a sheet detection sensor, a sensor unit, and a controller. The sheet detection sensor, in which a plurality of sensor blocks each with a plurality of sensor elements mounted thereon at specified intervals are arrayed in a sheet width direction, detects an edge position in the sheet width direction on a basis of scanning image data formed by reading of the sheet. The controller is enabled to execute a calibration of inserting, into the scanning image data, interpolation pixels for compensating an error between an edge position detected by the scanning image data and an actual edge position.

An example scanner assembly includes a housing formed with corners to allow an image sensor line to align cornerwise. An example scanner apparatus may include a plurality of scanner assemblies with an image sensor line oblique to the media advance direction.

An image reading apparatus includes a first sensor that reads a first area of an image, a second sensor that reads a second area, and a processing circuit that generates a merge image by performing a merge process on first image data acquired by reading by the first sensor and second image data acquired by reading by the second sensor. The processing circuit calculates a correction value having a tendency of approaching zero as being away from an overlap area between the first area and the second area based on a reading result acquired by reading the overlap area by the first sensor and a reading result acquired by reading by the second sensor, and generates the merge image by performing an offset process using the correction value.
