Abstract
The invention relates to decoding utilizing image data. The image data can be received from a source. A processor can process the image data for decoding. A processing for decoding can be responsive to determined information.
Claims15
A computer readable medium storing instructions for performance of a method executable by processor for use in decoding information, the method comprising (a) recognizing a format of a received frame of image data, the received frame of image data being received from a source, wherein the recognizing includes determining an ID value for the source;
- and (b) activating a certain decode algorithm for processing an image data frame received from the source, the processing being a processing for decoding a decodable indicia that can be represented in the image data frame, the activating being responsive to a result of the recognizing.
The computer readable medium of column 1, wherein the recognizing includes determining the source of the frame of image data and wherein the recognizing includes determining a parameter associated with the frame of image data.
A computer readable medium storing instructions for performance of a method executable by processor for use in decoding information, the method comprising (a) determining a source of a frame of image data, wherein the determining includes determining an ID value of the source;
- and (b) activating a certain decode algorithm for processing an image data frame received from the source, the processing being a processing for decoding decodable indicia that can be represented in the image data frame, the activating being responsive to a result of the determining.
A method for use in decoding information, the method including:
- (a) determining utilizing a processor source of a frame of image data, wherein the determining includes determining an ID value of the source;
- and
- (b) activating a certain decode algorithm for processing utilizing the processor an image data frame received from the source, the processing being a processing for decoding a decodable indicia that can be represented in the image data frame, the activating being responsive to a result of the determining.
