Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Embodiments of the present invention comprise an indicia reading terminal including operatively configured to interact with a storage module to store data, including location data, of a decodable indicia found in a captured document image. In one embodiment, the indicia reading terminal can be provided with one or more pre-stored information about the decodable indicia and/or the document. In another embodiment the indicia reading terminal can be provided with instructions and similarly operatively configured components that can identify information about the decodable indicia, store such information in a table, and utilize the tabulated data to process captured image data of subsequent documents.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A system for use in decoding a decodable indicia on a document, said system comprising: an indicia reading terminal comprising a two dimensional image sensor array comprising a plurality of pixels extending along an image plane, an optical assembly for use in focusing imaging light rays onto the plurality of pixels of said two dimensional image sensor array, and a housing encapsulating the two dimensional image sensor array and the optical assembly; and a…
