AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the synchronous operation of the supplementary light and the light sensor leads to problems such as degraded image quality and high power consumption, especially when scanning invisible codes, where light source interference causes serious image quality degradation and wasted device power.
A supplementary lighting control circuit is adopted, which uses a light sensor and a power chip for coordinated control. This enables asynchronous control of the light sensor and the supplementary light, dynamically adjusts the drive current of the supplementary light through the I2C protocol, and uses time-division control of the ultraviolet supplementary light and the infrared supplementary light.
It improves the decoding efficiency of stealth codes, reduces device power consumption, avoids interference from the light sensor's acquisition of environmental data, and reduces resource waste.
