Abstract

See full text

This invention provides a module for a handheld device. The module includes an imager with optics and image acquisition/processing processors that provide high speed acquisition and handling of acquired image data—such as IDs. The acquired image data is processed by the device processor using a module application that resides within the device. The module includes indicators and/or alarms that can indicate success in reading an ID. A removable retaining component mounts within the module's base portion and carries the device. The retaining component (either a top cover and gasket or subframe) varies to accommodate different devices. The base portion includes appropriate ports to enable optical transmission to, for example, cameras and illuminators so that various native functions of the device can be employed as desired. The base portion also houses a battery and charging assembly e.g. and inductive charging unit. A grip handle/trigger is optionally provided to the base portion.
