Hand-supportable digital imaging-based bar code reading system wherein, during each imaging cycle, a single frame of pixel data is automatically detected by a CMOS area-type image sensing array when substantially all rows of pixels therein are in a state of integration and have a common integration time, and then pixel data is transmitted from said CMOS area-type image sensing array into a FIFO buffer, and then mapped into memory for subsequent image processing

Abstract
A hand-supportable digital imaging-based bar code symbol reading device comprises: image formation and detection subsystem; a LED-based illumination subsystem; an automatic light exposure measurement and illumination control subsystem; an image capturing and buffering subsystem; an image-processing bar code symbol reading subsystem; an input/output subsystem; and a system control subsystem for controlling the subsystems. During each image capture cycle, a single frame of pixel data is automatically detected by the CMOS area-type image sensing array when substantially all rows of pixels therein are in a state of integration and have a common integration time, and then the single frame of pixel data is transmitted from the CMOS area-type image sensing array into a FIFO buffer, and then mapped into memory, for subsequent image processing.
