Abstract

The invention relates to decoding utilizing image data. The image data can be received from a source. A processor can process the image data for decoding. Processing for decoding can be responsive to determined information. The format of a frame of image data may be recognized. The recognizing may include determining the source of the frame of image data. The recognizing may include determining a parameter associated with the frame of image data.

Claims (33)

1. A computer readable medium storing instructions for performance of a method executable by a processor, the method comprising:

recognizing a format of a frame of image data received from a source;

determining an ID value for the source; and

in response to the recognition of the format of the frame of image data, processing the frame of image data in accordance with a decode algorithm in an effort to decode a decodable indicia in the frame of image data.

2. The computer readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the method comprises determining a parameter associated with the frame of image data.

3. The computer readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the method comprises:

determining the source of the frame of image data; and

determining a parameter associated with the frame of image data.

4. The computer readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the method comprises determining a frame size associated with the frame of image data.

5. The computer readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the method comprises polling the source.

6. The computer readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the method comprises loading the decode algorithm into memory.

7. A computer readable medium storing instructions for performance of a method executable by a processor, the method comprising:

determining an ID value of a source of a frame of image data; and

in response to the determination of the ID value of the source, processing the frame of image data in accordance with a decode algorithm in an effort to decode a decodable indicia in the frame of image data.

8. The computer readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the method comprises determining a parameter associated with the frame of image data.

9. The computer readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the method comprises:

determining the source of the frame of image data; and

determining a parameter associated with the frame of image data.

10. The computer readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the method comprises determining a frame size associated with the frame of image data.

11. The computer readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the method comprises polling the source.

12. The computer readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the method comprises loading the decode algorithm into memory.

13. A method for decoding information, comprising:

determining, with a processor, an ID value of a source of a frame of image data; and

in response to the determination of the ID value of the source, processing, with the processor, the frame of image data in accordance with a decode algorithm in an effort to decode a decodable indicia in the frame of image data.

14. The method of claim 13 , comprising determining, with the processor, a parameter associated with the frame of image data.

15. The method of claim 13 , comprising:

determining, with the processor, the source of the frame of image data; and

determining, with the processor, a parameter associated with the frame of image data.

16. The method of claim 13 , comprising determining, with the processor, a frame size associated with the frame of image data.

17. The method of claim 13 , comprising polling the source with the processor.

18. The method of claim 13 , comprising loading the decode algorithm into memory with the processor.

19. The method of claim 13 , wherein the processor is within a decoder module.

20. The method of claim 13 , wherein the source is an imaging module.
