Abstract

See full text

A method and an apparatus for optically reading test kits having an identification data zone associated with the test kit and test zone arranged to receive a test substance. The apparatus comprises an optical sensing module, an image-processing module coupled to the optical sensing module, a control module coupled to the optical sensing module and to the image-processing module. The optical sensing module is arranged to sense both the test zone and the identification data zone and deliver the sensed data to the image processing module responsive to the control module. Further, the image-processing unit is arranged to perform image processing on the sensed data from the test zone and from the identification data zone and further determine the test substance according to the sensed data from the test zone in view of the sensed data from the identification data zone responsive to the control unit.
