  • Virtual screen standby mode for mobile device camera
    Patent number: 11922271
    Abstract: A virtual surface is used for a standby mode for a device scanning optical codes. A virtual surface is designating as a rendering target for a camera of a mobile device used to detect and decode optical codes. The camera is started, with the virtual surface designated as the rendering target for the camera. The camera is stopped, without terminating a program that uses the camera, wherein the camera is in a standby mode. The camera is restarted to render to the virtual surface, after stopping the camera. An optical code is detected in an image acquired by the camera, after restarting the camera from the standby mode.

  • OPTICAL PATTERN DECODING IN A REAL SCENE USING OVERLAY FUNCTIONALITY
    Publication number: 20230401401
    Abstract: An optical pattern in a real scene is decoded after acquiring a video stream using a camera of a mobile device, wherein the video stream comprises preview images of the real scene and the optical pattern is in the real scene. A viewport for a screen of the mobile device is defined. The viewport is overlayed on an application window. The video stream is presented in the viewport, wherein at least a portion of the optical pattern is depicted in the viewport. The optical pattern is decoded in one or more images of the real scene acquired by the camera.

  • High-speed scanning of optical patterns using a digital camera
    Patent number: 11216628
    Abstract: A digital camera in a mobile device, such as in a smart phone, can be used for super-fast scanning of optical codes. The camera uses a wide-angle lens, high frames per second, very short exposure time, and/or a torch. For example, an ultra-wide angle camera can be used to provide a wide field of view and a large depth of field while decoding multiple optical codes.
