1. A method, comprising:
- capturing an image of a bar code and an image of at least a portion of a test strip on a scanning object, the bar code adapted to indicate a position of one or more target elements associated with the test strip; and
determining a test result for the test strips based at least in part on a determined color response of the one or more target elements.

Abstract
A method of automatically detecting a test result of a probe zone of a test strip Is provided. In one embodiment, he method comprises capturing an image of a bar code and an image of at least one test strip from a scanning object, determining a setting value for the at least one test strip based, at least in part, on said captured image of said bar code, determining a color response of the at least one test strip, based at least in part on the captured image of said at least one test strip, and determining a test result for the at least one test strip, based at least in part on the determined color response and the determined setting value.
