  • Page 27: Line Scanner With Oscillating Mirror

    Line scanner with oscillating mirror The oscillating mirror deflects the scan line additionally to both sides across the scan direction at a randomly adjustable oscillation frequency. In this way, the BCL 358 can also scan larger areas or spaces for bar codes. The reading field height (and the scan line length useful for evaluation) depends on the reading distance due to the optical opening angle of the oscillating mirror.
