摘要: A barcode-reading device can be configured to record certain information about events related to the barcode-reading device in a usage log. The barcode-reading device can be configured so that it records certain information in the usage log whenever the barcode-reading device scans a barcode (e.g., a timestamp, an indication of whether the barcode is successfully decoded, a symbology of the barcode, decoded data). The barcode-reading device can also be configured so that it records information about events that are not specifically associated with a barcode scan (e.g., when the barcode-reading device is powered on, when the barcode-reading device experiences a failure). The information contained in the usage log can be processed to determine statistics relevant to the barcode-reading device. The device statistics can be used for various purposes, such as improving the performance of the barcode-reading device, improving the user's experience with the barcode-reading device, and so forth.

摘要: Data can be collected from a plurality of barcode-reading devices associated with an enterprise. The collected data can be distinct from the decoded data that is generated by the barcode-reading devices when barcodes are read. For example, the collected data can include device data describing one or more characteristics of the barcode-reading device. Other types of data (e.g., camera data, license data, decoding metadata) can also be collected. The collected data can be sent to a remote server for processing and analysis. The remote server can provide feedback to the enterprise based on the results of analyzing the collected data.

摘要: Disclosed herein is a barcode reading system that includes an image decoding system, a communication interface, and an image sensor system package. The image decoding system may include a processor, memory, and a decoder stored in the memory. The image sensor system package may be coupled to the image decoding system via the communication interface. The image sensor system package may include a photo sensor array and pre-processing circuitry. The photo sensor array may be configured to capture image frames at a first speed. The pre-processing circuitry may be configured to perform one or more operations on the image frames captured by the photo sensor array. The pre-processing circuitry may be additionally configured to effect transfer of at least some of the image frames to the image decoding system via the communication interface at a second speed. The first speed may be greater than the second speed.

摘要: This patent specification describes a barcode-reading enhancement accessory for a mobile device having a barcode-reading capability. The accessory may include an outer case and an inner carriage. A mobile device is encased in the inner carriage, and the combination of the inner carriage and the mobile device is accommodated in the outer case. The inner carriage is configured to accommodate a mobile device of a particular size such that a mobile device of a different size may be accommodated in the outer case using a different inner carriage. The accessory may also include an optic system to fold an optical path of a field of illumination of a light source of the mobile device and/or a field of view of a camera of the mobile device.

摘要: Disclosed herein is an attachment for a smartphone. The smartphone may include i) a camera with an image sensor and a focusing lens located on a back side of the smartphone for capturing an image of a target area; and ii) a white light source on the back side of the smartphone. The attachment may include a targeting optic system. When the attachment is secured to the back side of the smartphone, the targeting optic system may receive illumination emitted by the white light source and direct the illumination towards the target area from a location that is not directly in front of the camera's image sensor. The location may be farther from the focusing lens than the white light source when measured parallel to the back side of the smartphone. The attachment may also direct the illumination into the target area via the targeting optic system.

摘要: A barcode reader may include an image sensor array, an optic system, an image buffer, and a plurality of pre-processing circuits implemented in hardware. The optic system may be configured to focus an image of a barcode onto the image sensor array. The plurality of pre-processing circuits may collectively implement a plurality of different image processing functions. Each pre-processing circuit may be configured to receive as input an image frame from the image sensor array or an image data record from the image buffer. The image data record may be derived from the image frame. Each pre-processing circuit may also be configured to perform an image processing function with respect to the image frame or the image data record, thereby generating a new image data record. A decoder may use at least one image data record to decode the barcode.
