Recognition and selection of a discrete pattern within a scene containing multiple patterns

Abstract

A memory device is provided including instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform the steps including receiving a plurality of images acquired by a camera, the plurality of images including a plurality of optical patterns, wherein an optical pattern of the plurality of optical patterns encodes an object identifier. The steps include presenting the plurality of images comprising the plurality of optical patterns on a display, and presenting a plurality of visual indications overlying the plurality of optical patterns in the plurality of images. The steps also include identifying a selected optical pattern of the plurality of optical patterns based on a user action and a position of the selected optical pattern in one or more of the plurality of images. The steps also include decoding the selected optical pattern to generate the object identifier and storing the object identifier in a second memory device.
