Abstract: An imager for illuminating and imaging encoded symbology to facilitate decoding of the symbology and which provides both "bright field" and "dark field" illumination patterns is provided with an illumination directing device to direct the "bright field" illumination pattern into an alternative "dark field" illumination pattern. In one embodiment the illumination directing device takes the configuration of a disc that is selectively positionable in front of the imager and removable therefrom depending upon whether or not the illumination pattern is to be changed. The disc snap fits into a position at the front of the imager housing and includes a fresnel configured outer ring, a light blocking inner ring, and a light transmissive center. The fresnel configuration receives light and redirects the light forward of the imager and towards a center line passing through the device to provide the alternative illumination pattern. Other embodiments of illumination directing devices are to be carried by the imager for disposition in either operative or inoperative positions; while still other embodiments of illumination directing devices selectively position collimating lenses and reflective surfaces to receive and redirect light from the images or permit the light from the imager to provide an unmodified illumination pattern.

Abstract: A method is for diagnosing the driving capability of a driver of a motor vehicle, in which changes in driver condition are ascertained from physiological measured values derived from the driver while driving in the vehicle and evaluated, and if the changes are serious, a warning is issued or remedial actions are initiated, wherein the physiological measured values ascertained while driving in the vehicle are combined by a corresponding expert system with health-relevant data for the driver ascertained in stationary fashion, and with data indicating driver stress that are estimated in particular from the instantaneous traffic situation and instantaneous operating state of the vehicle, and the changes in the driver's condition are weighted with the estimated driver stress and interpreted. An apparatus for performing the method is characterized in that the expert system is implemented in an onboard computer of the vehicle which is connected via a bus internal to the vehicle to a mobile driver condition sensor suite that supplies the physiological measured values, to a memory/transfer medium that delivers the biographical data and/or the health-relevant data ascertained in stationary fashion, and to an ACC system and driving direction system internal to the vehicle.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus of inserting insert or enclosure material into successive envelopes (2b) are disclosed. According to the envelope inserting method, the insert material is conveyed along a straight path successively to an envelope inserting position where the insert material is inserted into the envelope and the stuffed envelope (2a) is then conveyed out of the inserting position in the same direction as the above straight path. The method includes providing immediately above the envelope inserting position an envelope storage station (5) where a plurality of envelopes (2b) are stored in a stack one above another with the front panel of each of the envelopes (2b) facing upward so that the envelopes in the storage station are fed successively to the envelope inserting position for insertion thereinto of insert material. Feeding of the envelopes is performed by means of vertically disposed rotatable screw-like spiral member (7) located at the downstream side of the envelope storage station (5) as seen in the direction in which the insert material is conveyed. The spiral member (7) has formed in the periphery thereof a spiral groove for receiving therein the bottom edges of the respective envelopes, thereby holding such envelopes at the bottom edges thereof such that the bottom edges are separated one from another. The spiral member (7) is rotatable in such a direction that causes the bottom edges of the envelopes (2) to move downwards with the rotation of the spiral member (7) and then to be released from the holding by the spiral member (7).
