Abstract

A reading device includes a computing device and an image input device coupled to the computing device for capturing low-resolution images and high-resolution images (see Figure 1). The reading machine includes a computer program product residing on a computer readable medium. The medium is in communication with the computing device and includes instructions to operate in a plurality of modes to optimize performance for specific uses of the reading device and process low and high resolution images during operation of at least one of the plurality of modes.
