Abstract

See full text

In a preferred arrangement, a lens system having circular symmetry in the hand-held reader focuses the entire width of area information onto an area photosensor array with a single flash of a ring-type xenon flash tube which surrounds the lens system and is symmetrically disposed relative to the axis of the lens system. In this way, the area information image can be disposed at any angle relative to the photosensor array, and the sensed information as stored in digital form can be rotated to a desired orientation prior to decoding.
