Detailed Description
In order to further understand the objects, structures, features and functions of the present invention, the following embodiments are described in detail.
Referring to fig. 1, the present invention provides a method for reading a barcode by using an enhanced code reading mode, which includes the following steps:
s1: and finishing the decoding preparation work, wherein the decoding equipment is opposite to the conveying track of the articles attached with the bar codes, and the number of the bar codes on each article is at least 1.
S2: and starting the decoding equipment, triggering the decoding equipment to continuously shoot and capture N barcode images and cache when the article attached with the barcode passes through the decoding equipment, wherein N is more than or equal to 2.
S3: and outputting the N images to a decoding library.
S4: and the decoding library is used for sequentially decoding all the bar codes on the N images until all the bar codes on the images are decoded.
S5: and outputting the decoded data, and waiting for the next article with the attached bar code to pass through the decoding equipment.
And when the decoding operation of the step S4 is carried out, all the N cached pictures are output to a decoding library, the decoding library sequentially decodes from the first picture to the Nth picture, and when the Mth picture is decoded and M is not less than 1 and not more than N, all the bar codes on the pictures are completely decoded, and the decoding is stopped.
In one embodiment, 1 bar code to be decoded is pasted on an article, after the decoding preparation work is finished, the decoding equipment is started, the article triggers the decoding equipment when passing through the decoding equipment, and the triggering condition of triggering the shooting image bar code by the decoding equipment is that a sensor automatically senses triggering or manual key triggering. The decoding device continuously shoots N barcode images, for example 10 barcode images, and the 10 barcode images are output to the decoding library, because the moving speed of the article is high and the distance between two adjacent articles is long, the shot article leaves the lower part of the decoding device at the moment, but the second article attached with the barcode to be decoded does not arrive yet, and the blank time is long, so that the decoding device can be used for centralized decoding. The decoding library sequentially decodes the 10 bar code images, which can be images designated by an operator to start decoding, for example, if the operator selects to decode from the 2 nd bar code image, the decoding library selects the 2 nd bar code image to start decoding, if the first bar code image is decoded successfully, the decoding library stops decoding, decoded data is output, and the shooting of the bar code image on the next article is waited; if the first piece fails to be decoded successfully, then the 3 rd piece is decoded in sequence, the decoding is stopped until the bar code on the image is decoded successfully, the decoded data is output, and the bar code image on the next article is waited to be shot.
In another embodiment, the article has multiple barcodes attached to it to be decoded, for example a total of 3 barcodes attached. After the decoding preparation work is finished, the decoding equipment is started, the decoding equipment is triggered when the article passes through the decoding equipment, and the triggering condition of triggering the shooting image bar code by the decoding equipment is that the sensor automatically senses the triggering or the manual key triggering. The decoding device continuously shoots N barcode images, for example 10 barcode images, and the 10 barcode images are output to the decoding library, because the moving speed of the article is high and the distance between two adjacent articles is long, the shot article leaves the lower part of the decoding device at the moment, but the second article attached with the barcode to be decoded does not arrive yet, and the blank time is long, so that the decoding device can be used for centralized decoding. The decoding library decodes the 10 bar code images in sequence, wherein the decoding library can be an image which is specified by an operator to start decoding, for example, the operator selects the 2 nd bar code image to start decoding, the decoding library selects the 2 nd bar code image to start decoding, and as each bar code image has 3 bar codes, if the 2 nd bar code image is decoded, all the 3 bar codes are decoded, the decoding is stopped, the bar codes of the following image are not decoded, the decoded data are output, and the bar code image on the next article is waited to be shot; if the decoding work of 3 bar codes is not completed completely after the 2 nd image is decoded, the subsequent 3 rd image is decoded in sequence, the decoding is stopped in sequence until all the 3 bar codes in the image are decoded, the decoded data is output, and the bar code image on the next article is waited to be shot.
In one embodiment, the decoding device is connected with the PC terminal. The PC end is provided with a tool interface which is used for configuring decoding parameters. An operator can configure parameters through a tool interface of the PC end, and the PC end stores decoding data and the like to enhance human-computer interaction. Preferably, the decoding parameters include the number of captured images, that is, N is a changeable self-defined value, so that all barcode images have decoding time in the interval time.
Preferably, when decoding scenes on the fast moving object are decoded, the barcode on the fast moving object is photographed and image-captured by adopting a high frame rate image-capturing cache method, namely N is more than or equal to 40, so that when the object moves at a high speed, the barcode on the object can be clearly captured to at least 40 barcode images, the barcode images can be completely and clearly captured, and decoding is facilitated.
Preferably, the decoding parameters include exposure time and exposure gain of each barcode image, and the exposure gain and exposure time of each barcode image can be set to different parameters to obtain barcode images with different exposures, so as to ensure that at least 1 barcode image in the N photographed barcode images can be completely decoded.
Preferably, the decoding parameters include an image selection to start decoding, i.e., the operator selects to decode sequentially starting from one of the N barcode images. During decoding, decoding can be started from the 1 st starting point or the 3 rd starting point according to the selection of an operator, and the decoded initial image can be defined by the operator.
Preferably, different image processing methods are adopted to decode the N barcode images during decoding, and different image processing methods are adopted to shoot different barcode images, so that each image is clear and complete, and better decoding is facilitated.
The method for reading and decoding the bar code by applying the enhanced code reading mode is different from the conventional method of 'shooting and decoding at the same time', can continuously shoot a plurality of bar code images and output the images to a decoding library together for decoding in sequence, and is suitable for application scenes with high moving speed and large spacing distance between two adjacent articles with the bar codes to be decoded. The plurality of bar code images comprise a clear and complete bar code image, the decoding time is sufficient, the decoding accuracy is high, and the condition of missing solution can be effectively prevented.
The present invention has been described in relation to the above embodiments, which are only exemplary of the implementation of the present invention. It should be noted that the disclosed embodiments do not limit the scope of the invention. Rather, it is intended that all such modifications and variations be included within the spirit and scope of this invention.
