A fully automated package identification and measuring system, in which an omni-directional holographic scanning tunnel is used to read bar codes on packages entering the tunnel, while a package dimensioning subsystem is used to capture information about the package prior to entry into the tunnel. Mathematical models are created on a real-time basis for the geometry of the package and the position of the laser scanning beam used to read the bar code symbol thereon. The mathematical models are analyzed to determine if collected and queued package identification data is spatially and / or temporally correlated with package measurement data using vector-based ray-tracing methods, homogeneous transformations, and object-oriented decision logic so as to enable simultaneous tracking of multiple packages being transported through the scanning tunnel.

Parallel data communication realignment of data sent in multiple groups
InactiveUS7085950B2Small degreeOvercomes more significant skew-caused misalignmentsChannel dividing arrangementsRecord information storageDigital dataComputer module
A high-speed parallel data communication approach overcomes data skewing concerns by concurrently transmitting data in a plurality of multiple-bit groups and, after receiving the concurrently-transmitted data, realigning skew-caused misalignments between the groups. In one particular example embodiment, for each group, an arrangement transfers the data in parallel and along with a clock signal for synchronizing digital data. The transferred digital data is synchronously collected via the clock signal for the group. At the receiving module, the data collected for each group is aligned using each group's dedicated clock signal. Skew across clock-domain groups is tolerated and overcome by processing the data and the skew first within each clock domain group, and then between groups.
