It would seem possible that a software change could cause the DC1005 to "accumulate" readings as you scanned down the strip as opposed to clicking each square...

It takes nearly one second per measurement with the DC1005 spectro. Taking multiple readings at random down a row, tossing the ones at the patch boundries, and averaging the remaining readings would be much, much slower than just pushing the button on each patch. As I said before, this device is accurate and affordable, but it simply cannot be turned into a strip reader. It could be automated, but that wouldn't speed it up, just eliminate user involvement by taking readings on a grid with a mechanical xy table or similar solution.
