<p>A method of locating an optical code of the maxicode type wherein a central target element comprises three concentric black rings separated by two white annular spaces and a white circular central space defining the center of the target element. The method includes the steps of: acquiring (90) and binary-coding (100) an image of the optical code; examining (230, 270) rows and columns of the binary-coded image, each row or column having black elements, each defined by at least one elementary representation unit of a first binary value ("1"), and white elements (W0, W1, W2, W3, W4), each defined by at least one elementary representation unit of a second binary value ("0"); performing a sequence control step (720) to locate, in each examined row or column of the image, at least one predetermined sequence of white and black elements; and performing an assigning step (760) in which the rows or columns in the image containing a sequence of white and black elements corresponding to the predetermined sequence are recognized as intersecting the center of the target element.</p> |
