Abstract: An apparatus and assembly for redirecting the central illumination axis of an illumination assembly towards the central field of view (FOV) axis of an imaging assembly using an optical element that provides an optical magnification of less than 1.5×, where the central illumination axis at the point of the illumination assembly is non-parallel to the central FOV axis.

Abstract: A barcode reader has a housing, a weigh platter, and an off-platter detection assembly including an imaging assembly in communication with a controller. The imaging assembly has an imager configured to capture an image of first and second lateral edges of the weigh platter and having a field-of-view extending over an upper surface of the weigh platter. The controller is configured to: identify and locate the first and second lateral edges based upon a training image; receive the image from the imager; allow the measured weight to be recorded if determined that a footprint of an object positioned on the weigh platter does not extend over the first and second lateral edges based on the image; and prevent the measured weight from being recorded and/or providing and alert to a user if determined that the footprint of the object does extend over the first and/or second lateral edges.

Abstract: A bioptic barcode reader is disclosed for selective use of illumination color to capture appropriate data. The bioptic barcode reader includes a housing and a primary imager positioned within the housing, configured to scan a target object during a first time period. The bioptic barcode reader further includes a primary illumination source positioned within the housing configured to emit primary illumination in a primary wavelength range during the first time period. The bioptic barcode reader further includes a secondary imager configured to capture one or more images of a target object during a second time period. The bioptic barcode reader further includes a secondary illumination source configured to emit secondary illumination in a secondary wavelength range during the second time period, wherein the second time period and first time period are interleaved and the secondary wavelength range is different from the primary wavelength range.

Abstract: A barcode reader having alternating illumination for a single sensor split into multiple fields of view (FOVs) is disclosed herein. An example barcode reader includes an image sensor having a primary FOV and operable at a predetermined framerate, an optical assembly configured to split the primary FOV into first and second subfields of view, an illumination assembly configured to illuminate targets appearing within the first and second subfields of view, a controller, and a decoder. The controller instructs the image sensor to capture a first image with a first exposure duration while having the illumination assembly be activated for at least a portion of the first exposure duration and a second image with a different second exposure duration while having the illumination assembly be activated for at least a portion of the second exposure duration. From the first and second images, the decoder attempts to decode a barcode.

Abstract: A barcode reader is provided. The barcode reader comprises an imaging assembly having a field of view (FOV) extending along one or more horizontal planes and a housing of the imaging assembly, the housing being a cuboid shape having six sides. The FOV of the imaging assembly passes through an opening in a first side of the housing with a width that is 1.5 inches or greater. The first side of the housing has a width that is greater than or equal to 2.5 inches and less than or equal to 3.5 inches, and has a height that is greater than or equal to 2.0 inches and less than or equal to 3.5 inches. The housing is substantially stable when at least a portion of a second side of the housing, substantially parallel to at least one of the one or more horizontal planes, is placed on a flat surface.

Abstract: An example field-upgradeable barcode reader is configured to be supported by a workstation and includes a first housing portion supporting a generally horizontal platter having a generally horizontal window and a second housing portion supporting a generally vertical window. The second housing includes a receptacle configured to alternatively receive one of a cover and a field-installable imaging assembly insert. The field-installable imaging assembly insert is configured to receive an image acquisition assembly.

Abstract: A workstation captures images of illuminated symbols with a solid-state imager. In an embodiment, the workstation includes a removable camera module in the workstation away from the imager. The camera module captures a secondary image through a window. The captured image of the illuminated symbol and the captured secondary image are independently processed.
