Definitions

  • the present invention is generally relates to scanning of words, marks, code and like, and particularly, but not exclusively, to barcode scanning.
  • a barcode reader or scanner is an electronic device which scans and reads the barcode and gives the output to the electronic device like computer, mobile and like.
  • the system consists of a light source, a lens and system which convert light sensor translating optical impulses into electrical ones.
  • CCD or CMOS readers use an array of hundreds of tiny light sensors lined up in a row in the head of the reader. Each sensor measures the intensity of the light immediately in front of it.
  • the CCD reader measures emitted ambient light from the bar code.
  • the scenario is objects are moving with certain speed. Tracking of these moving objects using the barcode scanning system and method is the requirement of that automated system.
  • the scenario may be the objects are continuously moving on the conveyor belt or like and along with that these objects may be moving around their own axis in 360°, then in such cases there is a challenge to track the barcode and other details noted on the object.
  • the challenge is to track the data on moving object of any shape and size, which is moving in one direction and along with that the object is moving around its own axis.
