Yep, I understand. Still I'd be curious to know how to achieve something as small and low power as this http://www.fastforward.ag/eng/index_eng.html Or similarly http://www.xemtec.ch/15-0-AMR-Retrofit.html employs an ASIC with image sensing and pre-processing but the recognition is left to a later processing (even on a 8-bit MCU!?) Cheers, LG
