Adaptive optical image reader
First Claim
1. A digital image reading system adapted for reading a bar code symbol, said system comprising:
- an image sensing component; and
a computer coupled to said image sensing component;
wherein said system is adapted to acquire an image utilizing a first frame rate parameter, a first gain parameter, and a first exposure parameter;
wherein said system is further adapted to adjust said first frame rate parameter to a second frame rate parameter responsively to an evaluation of said image acquired utilizing said first frame rate parameter, said first gain parameter, and said first exposure parameter, said second frame rate parameter being different from said first frame rate parameter; and
wherein said system is further adapted to subject to a decode attempt for decoding of a bar code symbol a captured image captured utilizing said second frame rate parameter.

Abstract
There is described in one embodiment a method for use by an apparatus that can acquire an image. According to a described method, a method can include acquiring an image and can further include evaluating an image. According to a described method, an apparatus can acquire an image, can evaluate an image, and can provide parameters for utilization by the apparatus. In another embodiment, there is described an apparatus comprising a plurality of digitizers. In one example of an embodiment of an apparatus including a plurality of digitizers, the digitizers can be configured to run in parallel. In another example of an embodiment of an apparatus including a plurality of digitizers, the digitizers can be configured to run in series.
