follows:
27. An optical target acquisition system for acquiring an
optical target affixed to a surface of a package, comprising:
an optical scanning device for scanning said surface of
said package and generating an optical target input signal;
a height sensor for sensing a height associated with said
surface of said package and generating a height signal
representative of a scanning distance between said optical
target and said optical scanning device;
first converting means for receiving said optical target
input signal and converting said optical target input signal
in accordance with a first sampling frequency to provide a
converted input signal;
means for adjusting a second resampling frequency in
accordance with said height signal;
second reconverting means for receiving said converted
input signal and reconverting said converted input signal in
accordance with said second resampling frequency to generate a
frequency shifted optical target signal; and
