US Patent:

6669091, Dec 30, 2003

Filed:

Mar 2, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/798117

Inventors:

Jeffrey G. Sharpe - Hatfield PA
David A. Wurz - Chalfont PA

Assignee:

Accu-Sort Systems, Inc. - Hatfield PA

International Classification:

G06K 710

US Classification:

23546212, 23546201

Abstract:

A scanner can read machine-readable code on an object. A scanner has a scanning device, a data device, and a registration device. The scanning device can repetitively scan the code and provide a scan signal repetitively corresponding to at least fragments of the code. The data device is coupled to the scanning device and responds to its scan signal for repetitively storing it. The registration device is coupled to the data device for reconstructing the code from at least two of the fragments of the code by relatively shifting the code fragments until they are in registration.

International Classification:

G06K 7/10

US Classification:

23546212

Abstract:

A method for processing scanned code data, including a plurality of strings, to determine whether the scanned code data is part of a valid code begins by examining a first string of a first scanned code data. A cluster is opened with the first string if the first string contains a start pattern. At least one valid middle portion of the first string is identified and a transition position count associated with the at least one valid middle portion is stored. A second scanned code data is searched for a second string matching at least part of the first string in the cluster. If a match is found, then the second string is added to the end of the cluster. The cluster is closed upon detection of a stop pattern and is then decoded.
