Abstract
In some embodiments, an item is exposed to electromagnetic light using a plurality of electromagnetic light emitters that are arranged throughout a structure (e.g., while the item is being moved from a first opening of the structure to a second opening of the structure). A plurality of images of the item or object is captured by a plurality of image sensors that are arranged throughout the structure. A first pattern in at least one image is recognized. The first pattern includes encoded information associated with the item, and the first pattern is visible in response to the exposure of the item to the electromagnetic light. The encoded information is decoded, and the item is identified based on the decoded information.
