SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PATTERN STITCHING AND DECODING USING MULTIPLE CAPTURED IMAGES

Systems and methods read machine readable symbols, the systems and methods capture multiple images of the symbol and can locate symbol data region(s) from an image even when the symbol data is corrupted and not decodable. Binary matrices are generated of the symbol data regions obtained from the multiple images and can be accumulated to generate a decodable image. A correspondence can be established among multiple images acquired on the same symbol when the symbol has moved from one image to the next.
