摘要： A user is alerted to context-based transactional information under which products are to be transacted at a point-of-transaction site by a speaker on an electro-optical reader. The speaker announces, as an audible message, to the user a detailed context under which each product identified to the reader is to be transacted. The audible message is broadcast as a sound wave either corresponding to a pattern of original speech, or to a sound effect. The detailed context can, for example, be a reminder to deactivate an electronic article surveillance (EAS) tag associated with each identified product, or a reminder that the identified product is on sale.

摘要： The present disclosure provides a rotating-polarization reflector-backed Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) loop antenna apparatus and method. The loop antenna apparatus and method provides high gain (i.e., maximizing read distances at lowest power), directionality (i.e., ability to focus on specific areas), orientation insensitivity (i.e., ability to read RFID tags in any direction or orientation) while occupying minimal volume in overhead configurations. In an exemplary embodiment, the loop antenna apparatus includes a reflector and a loop element with the reflector configured to reflect downward RF energy from the loop element. Antenna polarization is controlled by a feed location on the loop element and antenna pattern is controlled by the reflector. Thus, orientation insensitivity may be achieved without changing the antenna pattern by rotating the feed location and not the reflector.

摘要： A compact hybrid imaging lens assembly captures return light from a target over a field of view of a linear array of image sensors of a solid-state imager, and projects the captured return light onto the array during electro-optical reading of the target. The assembly includes a plastic lens for optical aberration correction, a glass lens spaced away from the plastic lens along an optical axis, and an aperture stop between the lenses and having an asymmetrical aperture through which the optical axis extends. The glass lens has substantially all the optical power of the imaging lens assembly for thermal stability, and the plastic lens has substantially no optical power. A holder holds the lenses and the aperture stop away from the array. Alignment elements on the plastic lens align the asymmetrical aperture relative to the linear array.

摘要： An apparatus includes an imaging sensor having photosensitive elements for detecting light from the target object through an imaging lens arrangement to create first pixel data during a first time period when the extended aiming pattern is projected on the target object. The apparatus also includes a controller for processing the first pixel data to estimate a feature-size of the extended aiming pattern in an image of the target object when the imaging lens arrangement is at a predetermined focus length, and further processing the feature-size along with the predetermined focus length to determine a distance characterizing the separation between the target object and the imaging lens arrangement.
