Scanner for decoding optically readable label and optically readable label for such device

The scanner for decoding optically readable label comprises a unit for illuminating the settled passage zone of the label, an optical image generating unit of the settled zone with the installed label, creation of a binary card, the elements of which correspond to the luminances values of the light reflected from the label land excitation of each element of the generated optical image as well as a unit for decoding the binary card into electrical signals connected to the optical image generating unit outlet, creation of the binary card and excitation of each element, the decoding unit is made in the form of consequently joined units for two-dimensional restoration of the clock time synchronization signal on the optical label, a unit for detecting the geometric centres of the coded polygons executed in the form of hexagons for identification of their optical properties and the hexagon decoding unit for encoding inversion.The optically readable label comprises information-coded hexagons, the geometric centres of adjacent polygons are placed in the settled two-dimensional lattice tops and the polygons have at least one of two optical properties, the polygons are executed in the form of hexagons adjacently or partial adjacently placed into the two-dimensional honeycomb matrix and the label is made with concentric rings in a zone separated from that one with hexagons and each concentric ring ha sat least one of two optical properties in alternative sequence.The technical result consists in the fact that the inversion allows to obtain a closer and more compact packing of information and to diminish the messages loss possibility of high and low priority because of scanning errors.Drawings: 10
