    摘要： An omni-directional digital image capturing and processing system for use in a POS environment, comprising a system housing having horizontal and vertical housing sections. The horizontal housing section has a horizontal imaging window, and contains (ii) a first plurality of coplanar illumination and imaging stations, for generating and projecting a first group of coplanar illumination and imaging planes through the horizontal imaging window, and (ii) at least one area-type illumination and imaging station disposed in the horizontal housing section for generating and projecting an area-type illumination and imaging zone through the horizontal imaging window. The vertical housing section has a vertical imaging window, and contains a second plurality of coplanar illumination and imaging stations for generating and projecting second group of coplanar illumination and imaging planes through the vertical imaging window, which intersect with the first group of coplanar illumination and imaging planes and the area-type illumination and imaging zone, within a 3D imaging volume definable relative to the horizontal and vertical imaging windows, for omni-directional digital imaging of the object passing through the 3D imaging volume. Digital linear images of the object are generated as the object intersects the coplanar illumination and imaging planes, and digital area-type digital images of the object are generated as the object intersects with the area-type illumination and imaging zone, within the 3D imaging volume during system operation.

    摘要： An automatic omni-directional bar code symbol reading system for use in a POS environment. The system comprises a system housing having an light transmission window. A plurality of linear-type bar code symbol reading stations are disposed in the system housing, for generating and projecting a complex of linear illumination planes through the light transmission window and into a 3D volume definable relative to the system housing. At least one area-type bar code reading station is disposed in the system housing, for generating and projecting an area illumination beam through the light transmission window and into the 3D volume. The complex of linear illumination planes and the area illumination beam enable omni-directional reading of bar code symbols on an object passing through the 3D volume, and the generation symbol character data representative of the read bar code symbol. An object detection subsystem automatically detects the object passing through the 3D volume, and generates data representative of the detected object within the 3D volume. A control subsystem controls operations within the linear-type and area-type bar code symbol reading stations using control data derived from the data generated by the object detection subsystem.

    摘要： A method of and system for returning a consumer product in a retail environment and preventing or reducing employee theft of returned merchandise in retail store environments and providing greater accountability for returned merchandise in retail store environments. The method comprises providing an image capturing and processing system at the retail environment, including a system housing having an imaging window and generating and projecting a field of view through the imaging window, and into a 3D imaging volume definable relative to the imaging window. The digital image capturing and processing system produces one or more digital images of objects passing within the 3D imaging volume. Identification (ID) data for the consumer returning the purchased goods is entered into a host system connected to the digital image capturing and processing system, as well as identification data for the employee to whom the goods are being returned. The digital image capturing engine captures one or more digital images of returned products and these digital images are provided to the host system. The host system generates an electronic document containing identification data for the customer and employee along with the one or more digital images of the returned product or merchandise. The electronic document is then transmitted from the host system to a database server associated with the retail store environment, for storage and subsequent processing. By virtue of the present invention, it is now possible to prevent or reduce employee theft of returned merchandise in retail store environments and provide greater accountability for returned merchandise in such store environments.

    摘要： A digital image capturing and processing system comprising a plurality of coplanar illumination and imaging stations for producing a plurality of coplanar linear illumination and imaging planes which intersect within a 3D imaging volume defined relative to an imaging window. Each station includes an array of planar illumination modules (PLIMs) for producing at least one substantially planar illumination beam (PLIB), and a linear image detection array having a field of view (FOV) on the linear image detection array and extending in substantially the same plane as the PLIB, to provide a coplanar illumination and imaging plane (PLIB/FOV). The PLIB/FOV is projected through the 3D imaging volume, for capturing linear (1D) digital images of an object passing therethrough, for subsequent processing and recognition of information graphically represented in the linear digital images. The system includes an automatic object motion detection subsystem for automatically determining when and where an object is being moved through the 3D imaging volume, and a control subsystem for selectively activating illumination sources in only those PLIMs in particular coplanar illumination and imaging stations when an object is being moved within the FOV thereof. By virtue of the present invention, it is possible to minimize the illumination of human beings who might be present along the lines of projected coplanar illumination and imaging planes during the operation of system, at point-of-sale (POS) stations and like retail environments.
