    Abstract: A workstation processes a product by imaging an indicium associated with the product in a transaction, and images a sheet-like target associated with the transaction. A window is supported in a window plane in contact with the target during target imaging. An imaging assembly captures light from the indicia during product processing, and from the target during target imaging, over a plurality of fields of view extending along different directions through the window. Each field bounds an area in the window plane that is smaller than the entire target. At least one pair of the fields partially overlaps each other in the window plane. The fields overlap contiguous portions of the target during target imaging. The light from the contiguous portions is captured by the imaging assembly as a plurality of target images. A controller compiles the target images into a single output image indicative of the target.

    Abstract: An arrangement for, and a method of, electro-optically reading a target by image capture, employ an aiming assembly for projecting an aiming light pattern on the target that is located within a range of working distances relative to a housing, an imaging assembly for capturing an image of the target and of the aiming light pattern over a field of view, and a controller for determining a distance of the target relative to the housing based on a position of the aiming light pattern in the captured image, for determining a scanning resolution based on the determined distance, for comparing the determined scanning resolution with a scanning resolution setting, and for processing the captured image based on the comparison.

    Abstract: Vorrichtung und Verfahren zum elektro-optischen Lesen von Zeichen, wie etwa einem direkten Teilemarkierungs-(DPM-)Code, der relativ zu einer Zieloberfläche auf einem Ziel erhöht oder vertieft ist. Ein Festkörper-Entfernungsbildsensor erfasst ein Zielbild, bestehend aus einem ersten Satz von Pixeln mit ersten Abstandswerten, die einem ersten Abstand des Codes von dem Sensor entsprechen, und einem zweiten Satz von Pixeln mit zweiten Abstandswerten, die einem zweiten Abstand der Zieloberfläche von dem Sensor entsprechen. Ein Kontroller liest das Zeichen durch Unterscheiden zwischen dem ersten Satz von Pixeln und dem zweiten Satz von Pixeln in dem Bild durch Bestimmen von abrupten Änderungen der Abstandswerte unter benachbarten Pixeln.

    Abstract: A method of operating a laser scanner for reading a barcode. The laser scanner is configured to operate in at least two operating modes including a scanning mode and an aiming mode. The method includes operating the laser scanner in the scanning mode after a trigger signal is generated by a trigger on the laser scanner, and decoding the electrical signal that is received from the photodetector when the laser scanner is in the scanning mode. If the electrical signal from the photodetector is not successfully decoded after a first predetermined time period since the trigger signal is generated, alternating the laser scanner between the aiming mode and the scanning mode.

    Abstract: An imaging system for, and a method of, electro-optically reading targets, utilize an energizable illuminator for illuminating an illuminated target with illumination light, a solid-state, energizable imager having an array of image sensors for capturing return light from the illuminated target over a field of view, and for generating electrical signals indicative of the captured return light, and a controller for energizing the illuminator and the imager to process the electrical signals into data indicative of the illuminated target. A power reducer is operatively connected to the controller, for adaptively reducing electrical power consumption of the illuminator and/or the controller based on system usage.

    Abstract: The influence of speckle noise in degrading performance of a reader for electro-optically reading a multiple element symbol is reduced by constructing wavelets for each element width, correlating each wavelet with a differentiated signal derived from light scattered from the symbol to obtain a correlated signal having peaks, each peak corresponding to a middle of a respective element, and processing the peaks to decode the symbol. Edge detection of the elements, which is susceptible to speckle noise degradation, is not used for decoding.
