Abstract
When an imaging device receives an image file that includes a color barcode, a processor of the imaging device and/or a remote processor may decode the barcode by identifying informational elements and calibration elements in the barcode. When the calibration elements are detected, one or more color model parameters are determined, and a color model is developed. When an informational element is then detected, a color value is determined for the informational element, the color model is applied using the color model parameters to yield an adjusted color value for the informational element, and the adjusted color value is used to decode the color barcode.
