Systems and methods configured to determine a machine-readable optical code based on screen-captured video are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: receive, via a user interface of a client computing platform, an indication to begin a screen-captured video; initiate, based on the indication, the screen-captured video; effectuate an image decoding machine configured to parse and decode images and/or the video frames for information embedded into the images and/or the video frames to: parse the video frames for a text; for individual ones of the video frames with the text, extract embedded information from the text by performing at least optical character recognition; and decode the embedded information for metadata; and effectuate, via the user interface, presentation of information derived from the metadata.

An information code reader is capable of readably imaging an information code displayed on a screen, not liming to an information code covered by a covering portion through which visible light cannot be transmitted. In an information code reader, first illumination units to radiate visible light, in which an information code is subjected to image acquisition by a first image acquisition unit. Second illumination units radiate infrared light, in which the information code is subjected to image acquisition by a second image acquisition unit. A visible light cut filter, which does not allow the visible light to pass through, but which allows the infrared light pass through, is arranged depending on a spatial imaging range provided by the second image acquisition unit.

In one embodiment, a method for providing enhanced configuration features includes receiving, by a computing device, indication that a wearable device has started a pairing process with a second electronic device and obtaining images corresponding to the wearable device. Moreover, the method includes analyzing, by the computing device, the images to determine one or more aspects of the wearable device and configuring the wearable device using the one or more aspects of the wearable device.

A data-transmission system, comprising measurement means, having memories, to create and collect measurement data, an output device having a zero-power passive state, to show in the zero-power passive state, machine-readable code containing the measurement data created using the measurement means, a power supply for the output device and the measurement means, a server arrangement to process and/or store the measurement data, and one or several reader devices to read the code from the output device in the zero-power passive state and arranged for data transfer with the server arrangement. The output device and measurement means with memories are to be arranged at monitoring objects.

Disclosed are a method and device for recognizing a two-dimensional bar code for improving the efficiency of recognizing the two-dimensional bar code. The method comprises: a relative position of a household appliance and a terminal device is determined during network configuration of the household appliance; a display parameter for displaying the two-dimensional bar code is determined according to the relative position, wherein the display parameter comprises a size of the two-dimensional bar code to be displayed and the two-dimensional bar code carries device information of the household appliance; the display parameter is sent to the household appliance to enable the household appliance to display a two-dimensional bar code picture according to the display parameter; and the two-dimensional bar code picture is recognized to obtain the device information of the household appliance.

Embodiments of the disclosure relate generally to flicker reduction in a multi-imager environment. Embodiments include methods, computer program products, and apparatuses configured for producing a near-field illumination using a near-field illuminator, the near-field illumination produced at a defined pulse train. A near-field image sensor may be exposed near the start of a near-field illumination pulse, and a far-field image sensor may be exposed between pulses of the near-field illumination. Some embodiments, additionally or alternatively, are configured for detecting an illuminator switch event, deactivating the near-field illuminator source, and producing, using a far-field illuminator source, a far-field illumination. Upon switching the illuminator source, some such embodiments are configured for exposing a far-field illuminator near the start of the far-field illumination pulse, and exposing a near-field image sensor near the start of the next available far-field illumination pulse. Such image capture may repeat until an image processing task such as barcode reading is successful.

A fraud detection system for executing predetermined processing when a detection target is detected by using a detection device, the fraud detection system comprising at least one processor which determines, before the detection target is detected, whether a predetermined action has been performed by a user having a user terminal; executes, when it is determined that the predetermined action has been performed, fraud detection on the user based on identification information stored in the user terminal; and executes, when the detection target is detected, the predetermined processing based on an execution result of the fraud detection.

A system contributing to prevention of unauthorized use of an information code displayed on a screen. In the system, an information code display device cyclically displays a plurality of partial code images on a display screen of a display unit based on a first rule when the first rule is received from a server in response to a first request to the server. Accordingly, an information code reading device captures images of the display screen at imaging intervals according to a second rule which is received from the server by in response to a second request to the server to decode an information code composed of the plurality of images thus captured, according to the second rule.

Modulated display AR tracking systems and methods include a display configured to transmit first image content, the image content comprising a first image content frame and a second image content frame and a device comprising an image sensor, a processor and a memory. The device identifies the first image content frame and the second image content frame by distinguishing at least one feature of the first image content frame. The device recognizes at least one tracking pattern embedded of the second image content frame and retrieves a graphical element based on the at least one tracking pattern of the second image content frame. The device displays augmented image content including the first image content frame and the graphical element.
