ABSTRACT:
A photographic camera includes means for capturing and recording an image, a scanner for generating object data indicating the relative location of objects within the image, and an electronic processing section for combining the object data with the recorded image. In one embodiment the camera is a film camera including an optical section for focusing the image upon a film plane where a film is located, and the electronic processing section includes means for recording the object data upon the film. In another embodiment the camera is an electronic camera including an image sensor for capturing the image and producing image data, and the electronic processing section transfers the image data and the object data to an output storage section. In another aspect of the invention, an electronic image processing system comprises a computer and the electronic camera as described above, wherein the computer interfaces with the output section in the camera and accesses the image data and the object data in order to characterize the objects within the image.
