摘要:
Optical image readers have a two-dimensional image sensor and an auto-discrimination function. The auto-discrimination function identifies optical codes by type for pixel clusters and, in some cases, tilt angle and start/stop coordinates. The clustered pixel data is passed to an appropriate decoder identified by the auto-discrimination function based upon a likelihood that the cluster contains an optical code of a particular type. Line drawing technique provide for adequate sampling of the clustered pixel data code based on the tilt angle of the code relative to an image sensor array.

A flat bed scanner of the type commonly used as a stand-alone computer peripheral in combination with a contact image sensor module, which extends the full width of the scanner area to provide a 1:1 scanning ratio using a rod lens to focus the image onto the image sensors, with or without a motor driven feed mechanism and which can scan the entire width of a standard sheet of paper in a single pass.

A portable capture device, such as a hand held document scanner or digital camera, that receives voice commands for operation control is disclosed. Commands such as “scan”, “save”, “delete”, “left”, “zoom in”, and “send” are illustrative, where the capture device will perform the predetermined functions associated with the command names. In one embodiment, the portable capture device trains itself to recognize the user's spoken commands through voice analysis software. The voice analysis software may be located within the capture device, or on a host computer system and accessed by the capture device while tethered to the host computer system. The capture device has an audio input/output system under the control of a controller. Upon receiving a voice control input command, the controller saves the digitized voice input in dynamic memory. The controller then compares the command received with the commands stored in a command recognition table held in static memory.

Bar codes used for various applications. A bar code can be used for biometrics, or for computer data entry. A special bar code is described that has additional information, but can be read by other readers.
摘要:
The invention relates to a system for processing image data corresponding a scene comprising an imaging device and an image reading instruction indicia. In accordance with the invention, image data corresponding to a scene comprising an image reading instruction indicia is processed in a manner that depends on features of the image reading instruction indicia. If the image reading instruction indicia is of a type whose size, scaling, orientation, and distortion can be determined, scaling, orientation, and distortion characteristics determined from the image reading instruction indicia can be used to improve the image reading process.
摘要:
A device including a housing, a writing tip connected to the housing, a writing surface position indicator, a processor in the housing, a memory device in the housing connected to the processor, and a sensor in the housing and cooperative with the writing surface position indicator. The device may be used to record writings and drawings applied to a surface by a user, to transmit that data to a remote device, to download data from remote devices, and to otherwise communicate with remote devices.
摘要:
A portable, integrated scanner/scale apparatus capable of scanning and weighing articles of inventory and particularly intended for use with a method of inventorying bottled liquids, specifically liquor at a bar, or pharmaceuticals. The integrated scanner/scale apparatus is defined by a housing containing a scanner, a weighing scale, and a plurality of other components used by the scanner/scale apparatus for gathering, recording, and distributing inventory data. Housed inside the integrated scanner/scale apparatus is a memory device for storing information obtained from the scanner/scale apparatus, a display device for displaying data either generated by the scanner or scale or entered by the key pad, and a serial port or RF communications devices for enabling interconnection between the memory device and a personal computer having a software program for calculating inventory stock amounts and profits, etc.
摘要:
A two-dimensional image input unit is disposed on one surface, and data processed by an image processing circuit for processing an image input by the image input unit can be displayed on a two-dimensional image output unit disposed on the other surface as a rear surface with respect to the one surface. Size and cost reductions of the entire apparatus are attained, and read image information can be displayed on the image output surface as the upper surface in real time.
摘要:
A handy scanner equipped with rollers in a lower surface of a bottom plate thereof includes a bank portion protruding downward from the lower surface of the bottom plate and provided to surround a periphery of an FAP protruding downward from the same lower surface such that the FAP does not contact with a surface of an original. Downward protruding distances of the bank portion and rollers are determined such that at least a portion of the bank portion and the rollers can contact with a surface of an original simultaneously and, preferably, a difference in vertical level between lower ends of the bank portion and the FAP is set such that CTF of the handy scanner becomes 30% or more.
