摘要

ENHANCED SCANNER DESIGN Abstract Disclosed is an improved method for operating a scanning device, the steps comprising: positioning an object to be scanned in proximity of a plurality of scanner lights and an optical element; activating a first subset of the plurality of scanner lights; scanning a first portion of the object, said first portion selected as a portion of the object that does not create a direct reflection to the optical element of light from the first subset; deactivating the first subset of the plurality of scanner lights; activating a second subset of the plurality of scanner lights; and scanning a second portion of the object, said second portion selected as a portion of the object that does not create a direct reflection to the optical element from the second subset. 6809661-1
