The invention relates to a code support (60a, 60b) adapted to be associated with or part of a capsule intended for delivering a beverage in a beverage producing device by centrifugation of the capsule. The support comprises a code formed by at least a first sequence of symbols and a second sequence of symbols. The code is represented on the support so that each symbol is sequentially readable by a reading arrangement (100) of an external reading device while the capsule is driven in rotation along an axis of rotation (Z). The first sequence comprises at least one first preamble sequence of symbols, and at least one first data sequence of symbols. The second sequence comprises at least one second preamble sequence of symbols and at least one second data sequence of symbols. The first preamble sequence is distinct from the second preamble sequence.

A circular bar code includes at least one circular data ring having a plurality of data cells arranged side-by-side in a circle, a circular locator ring of a solid color and conveying the location and size of the bar code to a reading device; and a locator cell conveying the orientation of the bar code to the reading device. The locator ring and the at least one data ring have a finite width, and are concentric, without any gap between adjacent rings. The locator ring can be either inside or outside of the at least one data ring. The locator cell is defined by a gap in the locator ring and a single data cell located in a data ring adjacent the locator ring. The circumferential and radial dimensions of the locator cell convey the data cell size to the reading device.

The invention relates to an optically readable code support to be associated with or part of a capsule indented for delivering a beverage in a beverage producing device by centrifugation of the capsule. The support comprises at least one sequence of symbols represented on the support so that each symbol is sequentially readable by a reading arrangement of an external reading device while the capsule is driven in rotation along an axis of rotation. The symbols are at least partly formed of surfaces arranged to reflect mainly diffusively, in any direction forming an angle comprised between 3° and 10° with respect to a normal of said surface, any incoming beam of light with an incoming direction forming an angle comprise between 0 and 10° with respect to a normal of said surface.

A device disclosed herein relates to a rotation invariant data storage device comprising, a data storage device with an optically sensible image, encoded data stored within the sensible image, and a plurality of radial vectors stores the encoded data. The encoded data comprises an image that has been encrypted to a two-dimensional (2-D) white noise matrix and converted to a one-dimensional (1-D) array.
摘要:
A tool management system utilizes an optically readable indicia to identify tools. The indicia comprises a pattern (180) having pattern elements which are geometrically similar in shape. The pattern elements, which may comprise rings, are sized and positioned to identify characteristics of a tool (110) to which the pattern is applied. Each pattern element is disposed within a predetermined zone, and in the preferred embodiment, the boundaries of each pattern element are compared to the midpoint of the zone to decode the pattern. While the indicia is preferably used in connection with tools, it has application to other objects, and it is particularly advantageous where a relatively large amount of information must be encoded.
