Abstract:
A reading device includes an image capturing device, a light emitting device, and a processor. The processor controls the image capturing device to capture an image of an image capturing area. When the reading device is in a standby mode, the processor determines, based on the captured image, whether an object is in the image capturing area. If the object is determined to be in the image capturing area, the processor switches an operation mode of the reading device from the standby mode to a reading mode in which a commodity in the image capturing area is identified based on the captured image. The processor controls an amount of light emitted by the light emitting device based on whether the reading device is in the standby mode or in the reading mode, such that it is less in the standby mode than in the reading mode.

Claim (Index 2):
The device according to  claim 1 , wherein the processor controls a duty ratio of pulse emission of the light emitting element to reduce the amount of light emitted by the light emitting element in the standby mode compared with that in the reading mode.
