摘要： A bar code scanner and method for scanning a bar code symbol that splits a light beam using a liquid crystal device and directs the split light beams toward a bar code symbol using a moveable mirror. The light reflected by the symbol from each of the split light beams is summed and converted to an electrical signal indicative of the bar code symbol. The electrical signal is processed to decode the bar code symbol, but, if decoding is unsuccessful, the liquid crystal device is changed to affect the number of split light beams incident on the bar code symbol.

摘要： A phase-only filter for approximating a given optical transfer function for monochromatic incoherent light. The filter is designed by solving an integral equation for a phase function, and imposing, on a transparent plate, an optical path length for the incoherent radiation equal, in radians, to the phase function modulo 2.pi. plus an overall constant.

摘要： A bar code scanner employs an electronic means for causing the light beam to scan a bar code symbol, rather than using a mechanical device to generate the scan. A linear array of light sources, activated one at a time in a regular sequence, may be imaged upon the bar code symbol to simulate a scanned beam. Instead of a single linear array of light sources, a multiple-line array may be employed, producing multiple scan lines. The multiple scan lines may be activated in sequence, or activated simultaneously (time-division or frequency-division multiplexed. The multiple scan lines can provide signal enhancement, noise reduction or fault correction if directed to the same bar code pattern. Multiple scan lines may be generated using a single light source and a beam splitter, with mechanical scanning, as well as by the sequentially-activated light sources. Multiple simultaneous scan lines may be employed to generate a raster scan at lower mechanical scan frequency. In another embodiment, a tunable laser may be employed to provide a scan without moving parts; a laser beam from the tunable laser is reflected from a diffraction grating that produces an angular deviation dependent upon the wavelength of the laser output. As the frequency of the tunable laser is varied in some selected pattern, the laser beam will scan accordingly.

摘要： A mask for enhancing the depth of focus of an optical imaging system is designed by optimizing an optical property (transmittance or reflectance) of the mask relative to the intensity distribution in the system's image plane. Preferably, a desired PSF intensity is selected, a desired misfocus parameter range is selected, and the optical property is adjusted to minimize a measure of the departure of the system's PSF intensity, as computed from the mask's optical property, from the desired PSF intensity, over the entire misfocus parameter range. Most preferably, the desired PSF intensity is selected as the inverse Fourier transform of a desired OTF. Preferably, the mask is fabricated as a DOE.
