摘要： This disclosure describes methods and systems for using a barcode reader to read multiple barcodes positioned on an object. The barcode reader attempts to locate a first priority barcode within an image using first priority information. The priority information may define a region of interest within the image. The barcode reader may search only the region of interest for the first priority barcode. The priority information may define one or more characteristics of the first priority barcode. Based on the results of attempting to locate the first priority barcode, the barcode reader determines whether to attempt to locate a second priority barcode within the image. The barcode reader may discard the image if the barcode reader fails to locate the first priority barcode or the results of attempting to locate the first priority barcode indicate that the image is unlikely to contain a decodable second priority barcode.

摘要： A barcode reading system for a mobile device that includes a camera and a white illumination source is described. The barcode reading system includes a barcode reading enhancement accessory and a barcode reading application. The barcode reading enhancement accessory is secured to the mobile device and folds a field of view of the camera and a field of illumination of the white light source towards a target area. The barcode reading application includes an image capture function, a decoder function for generating decoded data from the image of the barcode, and a relay function for sending the decoded data to a remote server. The remote server can be an intermediary device or a non-legacy system. The intermediary device can be configured to communicate with a legacy system. The relay function can determine whether the decoded data is intended for the legacy system or the non-legacy system.

摘要： This patent specification describes a barcode-reading enhancement accessory for a mobile device having a barcode-reading capability. The accessory may include an outer case and an inner carriage. A mobile device is encased in the inner carriage, and the combination of the inner carriage and the mobile device may be accommodated in the outer case. The inner carriage is configured to accommodate a mobile device of a particular size such that a mobile device of a different size may be accommodated in the outer case using a different inner carriage. The accessory may also include an optic system to fold an optical path of a field of illumination of a light source of the mobile device and/or a field of view of a camera of the mobile device.

摘要： A method for glare reduction may be implemented by a graphical code reader. The graphical code reader includes an optic system, a plurality of light sources, and a control system. The control system is configured to determine that glare is present in an image captured by the optic system by identifying reflection from at least one of the plurality of light sources. The control system may take a corrective action to reduce the glare in subsequent images. The control system may be configured to take a first corrective action if a diffraction pattern is present at a periphery of the glare, and take a second corrective action if a diffraction pattern is not present at the periphery of the glare.
