Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Systems and methods of optical code reading include production of image data by a color image sensor array and processing of the image data to decode an optical code. In one configuration, the color image sensor array includes first and second sets of sensor pixels sensitive to light having different wavelengths. Reflected light is focused by an optical system to form one or more images of an optical code on the color image sensor array. The optical system includes optics to form first and second images of an object bearing the optical code, where the first image excludes light of the second wavelength and the second image excludes light of the first wavelength, thereby enabling the first set of sensor pixels to sense the first image without substantially sensing the second image and the second set of sensor pixels to sense the second image without substantially sensing the first image.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An optical code reader comprising: a color image sensor array including: a first set of sensor pixels sensitive to a first wavelength of light, and a second set of sensor pixels sensitive to a second wavelength of light different from the first wavelength of light; and optics forming on the color image sensor array a first image of a first view of an object and a second image of a second view of the object, wherein the first image is formed by l…
