摘要： A portable data collection device is provided for reading fluorescent indicia, such as barcodes. The device includes a housing with a pivotable image capture module. The image capture module includes an adjustable aperture, a color detector array for imaging light received through the aperture, and a removable flash module to provide ultraviolet light. Optics in the image capture module focus the light received through the aperture onto the detector array, in which the detector array is movable with respect to the lens to provide proper focus of an image onto the detector array. The adjustable aperture has an iris wheel to control the amount of light received by the detector array. A programmed controller is provided in the housing which operates responsive to a user interface to image and decode indicia, or capture color digital images in memory. A display on the housing shows images received by the detector array in a non-fluorescent imaging mode to target indicia to be imaged and decoded, where the controller automatically adjusts the focus of the image by adjusting the focal distance between the detector array and the lens. In response to user actuation via the user interface, the controller energizes the flash module to emit light, including the excitation wavelength(s), which enable the indicia to fluoresce, and the detector array receives fluorescent light to capture an image frame of the indicia. The duration of the flash is in accordance with the amount of light measured by a light sensor in the image capture module. The indicia in the image frame is then decoded by the controller to provide data representative of the indicia.

摘要： Methods of and systems for illuminating objects using planar laser illumination beams having substantially-planar spatial distribution characteristics that extend through the field of view (FOV) of image formation and detection modules employed in such systems. Each planar laser illumination beam is produced from a planar laser illumination beam array (PLIA) comprising an plurality of planar laser illumination modules (PLIMs). Each PLIM comprises a visible laser diode (VLD, a focusing lens, and a cylindrical optical element arranged therewith. The individual planar laser illumination beam components produced from each PLIM are optically combined to produce a composite substantially planar laser illumination beam having substantially uniform power density characteristics over the entire spatial extend thereof and thus the working range of the system. Preferably, each planar laser illumination beam component is focused so that the minimum beam width thereof occurs at a point or plane which is the farthest or maximum object distance at which the system is designed to acquire images, thereby compensating for decreases in the power density of the incident planar laser illumination beam due to the fact that the width of the planar laser illumination beam increases in length for increasing object distances away from the imaging optics. Advanced high-resolution wavefront control methods and devices are disclosed for use with the PLIIM-based systems in order to reduce the power of speckle-noise patterns observed at the image detections thereof. By virtue of the present invention, it is now possible to use both VLDs and high-speed CCD-type image detectors in conveyor, hand-held and hold-under type imaging applications alike, enjoying the advantages and benefits that each such technology has to offer, while avoiding the shortcomings and drawbacks hitherto associated therewith.

摘要： A method of and apparatus for automatically producing digital images of an object having a substantially uniform white level independent of the velocity of the object. The method comprising determining the velocity of an object moving relative to a planar light illumination and imaging (PLIIM) based imaging system having a linear image detection array with a field of view (FOV), a planar light illumination array (PLIA) with a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) arranged in a linear array for producing a planar light illumination beam (PLIB) coplanar with the FOV, and a micro-controller for controlling the operation of the PLIIM based imaging system. The determined velocity is used to compute the optical power which each light emitting diode (LED) must produce in order that each digital image of the object, formed by illuminating the object with the computed optical power, will have substantially the same white intensity level independent of the velocity of the object relative to the PLIIM-based imaging system. The computed optical power value(s) are transmitted to the micro-controller, and the micro-controller uses the computed optical power value(s) to drive each light emitting diode so that it produces a planar light illumination beam having the computed optical power level with the FOV. By virtue of the present invention, the planar light illumination beam illuminates the object, and the PLIIM-based imaging system automatically produces a digital image of the moving object, with pixels having a substantially uniform white level, independent of the velocity of the object. Such image characteristics enables simpler and more reliable image processing in applications such as, for example, optical character recognition (OCR) processing, where image pixels having a substantially uniform white level, and a uniform aspect-ratio, are often desired or required.

摘要： To provide an information code which copes with the lack of the number of displayable items of commodities and the number of sub-items allotted to each item, without enlarging the information code, which lack is imposed due to the limit of the quantity of displayable information by a monochromatic information code such as a bar code. The information code is formed by arranging three or more types of display areas in a predetermined arrangement, the display areas being different in color (reflected or radiated wavelength characteristic), and the wavelength characteristics of the display areas in the arrangement are combined to form a unit for displaying information. Further, to smoothly switch from the monochromatic barcode to the color barcode, the information code of the invention has a framework defining the relationship between a combination of the wavelength characteristics of the display areas in the arrangement and information items represented thereby, and the framework is designed to include a framework for displaying information of the monochromatic barcode.

摘要： A light source mechanism of a barcode scanner includes a laser diode as the point type light source, a collimating lens and a standing cylindrical lens in front of the laser diode. A mirror or a thin-film coating prism can be installed in front of the collimating lens to have the light beam from the collimating lens be reflected at least once to go out in horizontal direction. The reflected light beam from barcode passes through a condensing lens and is received by a linear receiver (CCD or CMOS sensor, for example) and is converted into electrical signals, and decoded by a circuit to get the data.
