Abstract: Systems and methods of operation for an image processor system to process images to locate two-dimensional regions which are likely to contain machine-readable symbol data or text. Such regions of interest (ROIs) may be preserved at full resolution, whilst the contents of non-ROIs are averaged into a single pixel value. Transition densities in an image may be converted into a numeric value. Such transition densities may be indicative of the presence of data of interest, such as textual data and/or machine-readable symbol data. The pixels values for the pixels in the ROIs may be sent to a decoder unchanged (i.e., full resolution), which absolves the decoder from having to perform any ROI location computations. Modified or altered images may be compressed to much smaller size files while maintaining lossless ROIs, which allows for transmission of such images to processor-based devices over a data communications channel in real time.

Abstract: A knotless suture system formed from two lengths of suture joined at a suture junction point, with at least four suture limbs extending from the suture junction. The knotless suture system provides the ability to construct a suture bridge for soft tissue repair and fixation across a medial and lateral row bone fixation anchor configuration while passing the suture system in a simplified method of suture management.

Abstract: A system and method for removing perspective distortion from an image of an object (112) moving along a transport device (114) having a top surface (124) is disclosed. A line scanner (110) to create a first image of an object. The first image is composed of a plurality of scan lines, each having a resolution. Each of the scan lines is then rescaled, so that the resolution of each scan line is equal to the resolution of every other scan line. Each of the scan lines is processed in two halves so that the center lines of the scan lines are co-linear after rescaling. The line scanner is optionally configured to vary its field of view as a function of the distance between the line scanner and the portion of the object being scanned.
