Method and apparatus for providing omnidirectional lighting in a scanning device

摘要: Systems and methods are provided for selectively controlling the illumination, particularly dark field applied to a symbol be decoded, determining suitable or optimized level of lighting decoding symbol. A method includes providing light source comprising plurality individually-controllable elements low angle illumination; activating an image sensor detecting data reflected from encoded when is illuminated by source; controller connected each elements, being programmed for: vary direction illumination processing detected image.
