20090039167 | Indicia reading terminal having spatial measurement functionality - There is provided in one embodiment an indicia reading terminal that can execute a spatial measurement mode of operation in which the indicia reading terminal can determine a dimension of an article in a field of view of the indicia reading terminal and/or determine other spatial information. In determining a dimension of an article, an indicia reading terminal can utilize setup data determined in a setup mode of operation and/or data determined utilizing the setup data. | 02-12-2009 |
20090242635 | Processing scheme for an indicia reader - An apparatus for collecting and processing information bearing indicia (IBI) comprising: a converter for converting light reflected off an IBI into IBI signals representative of the converted light; and, at least one processor adapted for: running at least one application process for acquiring the IBI signals and providing those IBI signals for signal processing; and, running at least one signal process for processing the IBI signals, wherein running of the at least one application process is independent of running of the at least one decoder process and wherein the at least one application process is adapted for resetting the at least one signal process. | 10-01-2009 |
20110101102 | OPTICAL READING DEVICE WITH PROGRAMMABLE LED CONTROL - An apparatus comprising: a sensor array having rows of pixels which are exposed to symbol indicia, wherein the sensor array generates a sync signal; an aiming pattern generator for producing an aiming pattern superimposed on the symbol indicia; a processor which utilizes the sync signal to control the aiming pattern generator to: turn on the aiming pattern during exposure of a first predetermined row of pixels; turn off the aiming pattern during exposure of a second predetermined row of pixels; turn on the aiming pattern during exposure of a third predetermined row of pixels; and, a housing for housing the sensor array, aiming pattern generator and processor for hand held operation. | 05-05-2011 |
20120138684 | TERMINAL WITH SCREEN READING MODE - An indicia reading terminal is disclosed that includes an illumination subsystem operative for projecting of an illumination pattern, an imaging subsystem, a housing, a memory, and a processor, in a variety of embodiments. The memory may be capable of storing a frame of image data from an image sensor array of the imaging subsystem. The indicia reading terminal may be operative to activate a screen reading mode in which the terminal, in response to activation of a trigger signal, activates an illuminated exposure and an unilluminated exposure. During the illuminated exposure, the illumination subsystem projects the illumination pattern while the imaging subsystem exposes an illuminated frame of image data for a first duration of time. During the second exposure period, the illumination subsystem refrains from projecting the illumination pattern while the imaging subsystem exposes an unilluminated frame of image data for a second duration of time, and the illumination subsystem projects the illumination pattern after the imaging subsystem exposes the unilluminated frame of image data and prior to the imaging system making a subsequent exposure. The processor is operative to attempt to decode a decodable indicia represented in at least one of the illuminated frame of image data or the unilluminated frame of image data. | 06-07-2012 |
20130082109 | DEVICES AND METHODS EMPLOYING DUAL TARGET AUTO EXPOSURE - The method includes automatically adjusting a first control parameter in a device for capturing a first plurality of images, automatically adjusting a second control parameter in the device for capturing a second plurality of images such that automatic adjustment of the first control parameter is interspersed with, separate from, and obtained generally concurrently with the automatic adjustment of the second control parameter. The adjustment of the first control parameter being determined differently compared to adjustment of the second control parameter. The method may include attempting to decode a decodable indicia utilizing one or more images of the first and second plurality of images. | 04-04-2013 |
20140151453 | Devices and Methods Employing Dual Target Auto Exposure - The method includes automatically adjusting a first control parameter in a device for capturing a first plurality of images, automatically adjusting a second control parameter in the device for capturing a second plurality of images such that automatic adjustment of the first control parameter is interspersed with, separate from, and obtained generally concurrently with the automatic adjustment of the second control parameter. The adjustment of the first control parameter being determined differently compared to adjustment of the second control parameter. The method may include attempting to decode a decodable indicia utilizing one or more images of the first and second plurality of images. | 06-05-2014 |
20140344943 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SECURING SENSITIVE DATA - An approach is provided for securing data in a technical environment. In one embodiment, a processor obtains a first file, which when executed installs a first portion of a second file and an assembly key to assemble the second file. The processor executes this first file and then obtains the second portion of the second file. The processor assembles the second file using the first portion, the second portion, and the assembly key. | 11-20-2014 |
