Abstract: A wrist-mounted optical scanner comprises a body portion (900) which is secured to the user's wrist by a strap (902), in the manner of a wrist watch. The body portion has a display (904), a miniature microphone (906), a photodetector (908), a transmitter unit (917) and a plurality of function keys (910). Beneath or within the body portion (900) there is stored a key pad (912) which can be slid in and out in the direction of the arrow (914) for access to the keys (916). The keys may be actuated by means of a pen or stylus (918).

Abstract: A point of sale counter (220) has plural food products each uniquely associated with a bar-code symbol to identify the product when optically scanned. The counter also includes a cash register (112) with an antenna (208) and a combination scale/printer (160), while an operator uses a scanner (10). When weighing a product, the scanner is aimed at the product bar-code so that the scale/printer prints the correct price label. An independent claim is included for a method of assisting customers in a retail establishment.

Abstract: In bar code symbol scanning systems employing laser, optical and sensor components, a mirrorless scanner arrangement mounts one or more of these components on a drive for repetitively reciprocating movement either about an axis or in a plane to effect scanning. All of the components are mounted together in a common assembly to constitute a compact, lightweight scan module which is mounted in an interchangeable, modular manner in housings of different configurations.

Abstract: A symbol scanning system which adaptively changes scanning system parameters including light beam pattern and focus to improve barcode readability. The scanning system including: a scanner, responsive to coordinate control signals, for directing a light beam in a pattern at a symbol at a predetermined location, detecting a reflected portion of the light beam, and generating a feedback signal corresponding to the detected portion of the reflected light beam; a microprocessor, responsive to the feedback signal, for generating pattern control signals; a pattern generator for generating the coordinate control signals in responsive to the pattern control signals and for determining the light beam pattern; and signal processing circuitry, including drive and control units, for adjusting gain, bandwidth, and digitizer threshold levels.

Abstract: A plurality of the areas of differing light reflectivity of a bar code symbol (34) or the like are simultaneously illuminated using, for example, a beam of laser light (22) that has an elongate cross-section. The light beam (22) is swept over the symbol to be read in a direction transverse to the elongated dimension of the illuminated region (78) so that a two-dimensional area (42) of the symbol is illuminated over time. The reflected light is sensed by a 1D CCD array (50). A microprocessor (52) within the scanner provides visual feedback to aid a user in aligning the device, and also provides for a selectable aspect ratio for the image, a selectable image resolution and size, a selectable aspect ratio of the illumination, and a selectable pixel size. All of these options may be programmed within the microprocessor (52), enabling the device to read a large variety of two-dimensional symbols.

Abstract: A record contains a graphic image and an information area which are interrelated to discourage misuse of the record. The information area can overlay the graphic image and include information encoded in a error-correctable, machine-readable format which allows recovery of the information despite distort due to the underlying graphic image. The record may also represent the image by words similar in form to words in the information area. Both the information and graphic words can then be altered when an action regarding the record takes place.

Abstract: An integrated scanner for scanning a barcode is formed on a common substrate. The scanner may include a micro-machined mirror, a laser diode, and a detector, mounted on a single substrate or several connected substrates. Lenses can be used to focus a laser beam from the laser diode as well as expand a laser beam deflected by the micro-machined mirror. The scanner may also scan a barcode without using a micro-machined mirror by rotating the laser diode.
