Patent EP2927839A1 - Hand-mounted indicia-reading device with finger motion triggering - Google Patents
A wearable indicia reader is worn on the back of a user's hand such that the act of pointing the user's index finger is sufficient to align the indicia reader and trigger the indicia-reading process. Triggering is achieved by sensing the user's finger in an image or by breaking a light path in a pho...http://www.google.com.ar/patents/EP2927839A1?cl=en&utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent EP2927839A1 - Hand-mounted indicia-reading device with finger motion triggering
