ABSTRACT:
An image capture device includes provision for projecting indicia onto an object surface. For a scanned beam image capture device, the image may be projected from the scan engine. The light source includes provision for modulating the intensity of its output. A controller modulates the output of the light source according to its position, forming a projected pattern. When the image capture device is an indicia reader such as a linear or 2D bar code scanner, the results of a decode attempt may be used to determine the contents of projected information. When a “no decode” is returned, the user may be prompted to scan again. When a decoded symbol includes directly useful data, all or a portion of the data may be projected. When the data refers to a look-up table, information from the look-up table may be projected. The device may additionally project finder patterns to aid aiming.
