Triggers or buttons are commonly used on electronic devices. For instance, triggers are employed on mobile computing terminals, bar code scanners, cellular phones, portable digital assistants (PDAs), etc. The trigger is used to initiate certain functions on the device. For instance, the trigger could activate a connection for telephonic communication, activate a data transfer function, or be used to navigate through menu options on a display. In another example, the trigger may activate a data capture engine, such as a module to capture bar code information, wherein the module may include a laser based bar code scanner or an imager for reading a barcode.
Various electro-optical systems have been developed for reading optical indicia, such as barcodes. A barcode is a coded pattern of graphical indicia comprised of a series of bars and spaces of varying widths, the bars and spaces having differing light reflecting characteristics. Systems that read and decode barcodes employing a laser are typically referred to as laser-based barcode readers or barcode scanners. In the case of operating a data capture device such as a bar code scanner, activating a trigger typically would notify a processor to turn on a laser and detector engine, operate a mirror to scan the laser beam over an area, operate the detector engine to receive any light reflections of the laser beam, and decode the reflections to determine if there is any barcode information within the reflections.
Systems that read and decode barcodes employing Charge Coupled Device (CCD) or Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS)-based imaging systems are typically referred to as imaging-based barcode readers or barcode scanners. Imaging systems include CCD arrays, CMOS arrays, or other imaging pixel arrays having a plurality of photosensitive elements or pixels. In the case of a data capture device such as an imager, activating a trigger typically would notify a processor to turn on an image detector engine, illuminate an area such that light reflected from a target image, e.g., a target barcode, is focused through a lens of the imaging system onto the pixel array. An analog-to-digital converter digitizes output signals from the pixels of the pixel array to capture an image frame of the area. Decoding circuitry of an imaging engine analyzes the digitized signals and attempts to determine if there is any barcode information within the image to decode.
In typical operation, once a decoding sequence has been initiated, an image acquisition process is started, during which an aiming pattern is projected onto the desired barcode during the scanning process. This typically involves an operator engaging a trigger located on the scanner, which enables the aiming pattern to be projected while simultaneously initiating the decoding process of the image or barcode to be scanned. The aiming pattern is then turned off and an illumination is projected through a window of the scanner at a target barcode, of which an image is reflected back through the window at a lens onto an array of photo sensors or pixels located within the CCD or CMOS imager. The pixels of the pixel array are read, generating an analog signal that is sent from the imager engine to an analog to digital converter, which then sends a digital signal to a decoder where it becomes synthesized by the decoder's internal circuitry and analyzed to decode the barcode information. The decode session is terminated with the decoded information being sent to an output port and/or display for the operator's attention. However, in either of an imager or laser-based systems, there is a power expenditure involved in illumination and a certain time latency before decoding can be successful due to the many operating steps.
Accordingly, there is a need for a technique to alleviate the above issues in triggering electronics, power consumption, and operational latency of triggered electronics such as a data capture engine.
The accompanying figures, where like reference numerals refer to identical or functionally similar elements throughout the separate views, together with the detailed description below, are incorporated in and form part of the specification, and serve to further illustrate embodiments of concepts that include the claimed invention, and explain various principles and advantages of those embodiments.
Skilled artisans will appreciate that elements in the figures are illustrated for simplicity and clarity and have not necessarily been drawn to scale. For example, the dimensions of some of the elements in the figures may be exaggerated relative to other elements to help to improve understanding of embodiments of the present invention.
The apparatus and method components have been represented where appropriate by conventional symbols in the drawings, showing only those specific details that are pertinent to understanding the embodiments of the present invention so as not to obscure the disclosure with details that will be readily apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of the description herein.
A system and method is described that mitigates issues in a trigger assembly and operational latency of triggered electronics. Although the present invention is described in relation to a barcode imager system, it should be recognized that the present invention is also applicable to other systems including laser barcode systems, Radio Frequency (RF) locationing systems, and any electronic system having operational latency issues. For example, Push-To-Talk (PTT) communication systems and digital camera image capture systems could benefit from the present invention.
The present invention is applicable in all electronic devices that have physical buttons to trigger activity like scanning, PTT, camera image capture, and the like. The present invention accelerates decoding performance by performing the image acquisition and decoding process before the trigger is pulled. A sensor can be added near or on the scan trigger button to detect when a user is about to press the scan trigger and start the decode process early. In most cases ambient lighting conditions are good enough that the imager engine can be enabled without it's built-in illumination source to light up an object and without projecting an aiming pattern on an object and still perform a successful decode. In these cases, decode could be performed before the trigger is pressed, and the actual trigger press only serves to immediately create a notification to the user indicating a successful decode occurred. Decode time would appear to a user to be nearly instantaneous, while saving the power that would be used for illumination and/or generation of an aiming pattern.

Turning now to
In normal operation, upon a user's finger 18 depressing the trigger 31, the trigger sends a signal to the processor 33, whereupon the processor activates the barcode scanner engine 16. The barcode scanner engine 16 then activates an aiming pattern 20, which is projected from the scanner 30 through a window 37 using internal mirrors that are also controlled by the scanning engine. The operator aligns the aiming pattern with the target barcode 15, whereupon the scanning engine can analyze reflections from the target barcode 15 and run a decoding sequence to decode the information in the barcode.
In accordance with the present invention, a proximity sensor 32 is located on or near the trigger 31. In other embodiments multiple proximity sensors can be disposed in particular locations on the device to detect different user hand positions. The proximity sensor can be a photo sensor or touch sensor, such as an impedance measuring resistive, capacitive or inductive device that is embedded in the handle 35 or trigger 31 of scanner. The proximity sensor detects when a user's finger 18 approaches the trigger before depressing the trigger. In the case of a photo sensor, an operator placing their finger near the trigger will cause the photo sensor to become covered, thereby changing the light into the photo sensor, which can be detected by a sensor module 36. In the case of an impedance sensor an operator placing their finger near the trigger will cause a change of conductance or capacitance of the sensor, which can be detected by the sensor module 36. The sensor 32 could also be a pressure sensor that activates by pressure induced by the operator finger as he or she touches the trigger. Although the sensor module 36 is shown as a separate entity, it should be recognized that the sensor module could be incorporated into the processor 33. In the example herein, the present invention utilizes a capacitive sensor.
In general, a capacitive sensor 32 in accordance with the present invention can include two coplanar electrodes separated by a narrow gap and connected to a capacitance measuring sensor module 36. An electric field is generated across the gap by the sensor module 36. When an object such as a user's finger is placed near the gap, the capacitance measured between electrodes will change. The sensor may be coated to protect the electrodes from the environment as long as the coating has an appropriate permittivity to permit the resultant electric field to extend through and above the coating such that a user's finger placed above the coating in proximity to the sensor will change the self capacitance across the gap resulting in a disturbance to the electric field that is of a sufficient magnitude to be detected by the sensor module. Alternatively, a capacitance sensor can includes two pairs of parallel electrodes separated by a dielectric gap between electrodes and a narrow gap between pairs. An electric field is generated between the electrode pairs by the sensor module to provide mutual capacitance. As above, the sensor may be coated to protect the electrodes from the environment as long as the coating has an appropriate permittivity to permit the resultant electric field to extend through and above the coating such that a user's finger placed above the coating in proximity to the sensor will change the mutual capacitance between the electrode pairs and across the gap resulting in a disturbance to the electric field that is of a sufficient magnitude to be detected by the sensor module.
If a change in the sensor 32 capacitance measured by the sensor module 36 exceeds a threshold value, this activation information is relayed by the sensor module to the processor 33 as a predictive trigger, whereupon a certain function of the mobile terminal is activated. For instance, if the measured change in capacitance exceeds the threshold value, the mobile terminal can perform one of many different functions, such as scan a bar code with a laser-based scanner, take an image using an imaging module, set up a camera to take a picture, automatic focusing, power electronics on or off, set up to send data over a wireless network, etc. If the measured change in capacitance is less than the threshold value, the predictive triggering functionality of the electronic device will not be activated.
In accordance with the present invention, an apparatus such as an electronic device or data capture device is described. The apparatus can include a housing 30, which comprises a handle 35 and head 29, and that includes the necessary electronics to perform a process that can be activated by a user depressing the trigger with a finger. Accordingly, the apparatus includes a trigger 31 operable to activate the electronics, such as a data capture engine to perform a data capture process.
In accordance with the present invention, the apparatus also includes at least one proximity sensor 32 operable to detect a user's finger in proximity to the trigger 31. A processor 33 is coupled to the electronics, trigger 31, and proximity sensor(s) 32. When the proximity sensor 32 detects a user's finger 18 in proximity to the trigger 31, before the user's finger actually depresses the trigger, the processor 33 initiates activation of the electronics to perform a portion of the process (less than the whole process), and when the user's finger depresses the trigger, the processor directs the electronics to complete the process.
For example, the electronics can include a data capture engine 16 operable to read indicia 15. When the proximity sensor 32 detects a user's finger 18 in proximity to the trigger, before the user's finger actually depresses the trigger, the processor is operable to activate the data capture engine 16 to capture image data, analyze the data, decode any indicia information within the data, and provide any successfully decoded indicia information to the processor 33. It should be noted that this is only a portion of the normal barcode reading process in that the data capture engine does not use any illumination for an imager engine or laser aiming pattern for a laser-based scanner engine. In most cases, ambient lighting conditions are good enough that an imager engine can be enabled and work successfully without using its built-in illumination source to light up a target or without the need to project an aiming pattern. In an alternative embodiment, the data capture engine is a Radio Frequency Identification reader. In any of these cases, an indicia can be decoded before the trigger is actually pressed.
If an indicia is able to be properly decoded without illumination, the actual trigger press would immediately create a notification to the user indicating a successful decode occurred. In this way, decode time would be appear to the user to be nearly instantaneous. If an indicia is not able to be properly decoded without illumination the actual trigger press would initiate a normal decoding process using illumination.
In a further embodiment of the invention, successfully decoding an indicia use predictive triggering includes providing a feedback notification to the user, such as an audio or visual feedback on a user interface. For example, audio feedback could be generated using an existing speaker on the electronic device wherein, after a successful decoding of the indicia, the processor can send an audio signal to the speaker. In a further embodiment, the feedback (e.g. the sound from the speaker or visual feedback) can be different depending on whether predictive triggering or normal triggering is used to decode the indicia. Further, the user can select from a list of sounds and/or visual feedback that he or she would like the terminal to make in response to whether the predictive trigger attempt or normal triggering is used to decode the indicia.
The embodiments described herein are described with respect to a physical trigger button on a handle on a data capture device such as a barcode imager. It should be recognized that the trigger assembly of the present invention could be located on other areas of the data capture device. For instance, the trigger button could be located on the side or face of the data capture device.
A next step includes initiating 202 activation of electronics in the electronic device to perform a portion of a process, e.g. to attempt to decode indicia by a data capture engine. Specifically, the electronics can include a data capture engine, and wherein the process is reading indicia by the data capture engine. The portion of the process can include powering up the data capture engine, automatic focusing, activating the data capture engine to capture data, analyzing the data, decoding any indicia information within the data, and providing any successfully decoded indicia information to the processor. The completion of the process includes providing a notification to the user indicating a successful indicia decoding if a successful indicia decode has occurred 205. However, if the indicia decoding was not successful, pressing of the trigger will trigger a normal decoding process 208, as if the attempt 202 to decode indicia by a data capture engine never happened, without any timing penalty.
A next step includes depressing 204 the trigger of the electronic device.
A next step includes completing 206 the process by providing a feedback notification to the user indicating a successful indicia decoding. The feedback can be different depending on whether predictive triggering or normal triggering is used to decode the indicia.
Advantageously, the present invention can accelerate decode performance by moving the image acquisition and decode process before the trigger is pulled. By adding a capacitive sensor to the scan trigger button, this sensor can know when a user is about to press the scan trigger and start the decode process early. In most cases, ambient lighting conditions are good enough that an imager engine can be enabled and work successfully without using its built-in illumination source to light up a target or without the need to project an aiming pattern. In these cases, a barcode can be decoded before the trigger is pressed, and the actual trigger press would immediately create a notification to the user indicating a successful decode occurred. In this way, decode time would be appear to the user to be nearly instantaneous, while saving the power that would be used for illumination and/or generation of an aiming pattern.
