Abstract: Methods and apparatus to indicate off-platter weigh conditions are disclosed herein. An example barcode reading and weighing apparatus includes: a weigh platter having a surface extending in a first transverse plane; a scale configured to measure a weight of an item on the surface; an off-platter detection assembly configured to detect whether a portion of the item is not resting on the weigh platter; a communication interface configured to communicate with a POS system; a processor in communication with the weigh platter, the off-platter detection assembly and the communication interface; and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the barcode reading and weighing apparatus to, when the portion of the item is not resting on the weigh platter, modify the weight to form a modified weight and send the modified weight to the POS system via the communication interface, wherein the weight is modified to indicate the portion of the item a3was not resting on the weigh platter.

Abstract: A weigh platter assembly includes a weigh platter and an off-platter detection assembly having a light emission assembly, a light detection assembly, and a controller. The light emission assembly has a light source to emit a light along a lateral edge of the weigh platter. The light detection assembly detects at least a portion of the light reflected from an object extending across the light beam and includes a sensor offset from the light source and an aperture positioned in front of the sensor and configured to limit a field of view of the sensor along the lateral edge. The controller is configured to provide a first signal in response to a first value received from the sensor and to provide a second signal, different from the first signal, in response to a second value.

Abstract: Techniques for weight checking for verification of ticket switching are disclosed herein. An example system includes: a weighing scale; cameras configured to capture images of items passing through a product scanning region and images of barcodes affixed to the items; a processor; and a memory storing instructions that cause the one or more processors to determine a first identification of an item based on the image of the barcode; determine a second identification of the item based on the image of the item; compare the first identification to the second identification to determine whether the two identifications match; based on determining that the two identifications do not match, generate a request for the user to place the item on the weighing scale; determine that the weight of the item does not match a first weight associated with the first identification of the item; and trigger one or more mitigation actions.

Abstract: Systems and methods for decoding multiple indicia are provided. An example includes an indicia reading device comprising an imaging assembly configured to capture 2D image data of an environment appearing in a first FOV, the first FOV directed at a product scanning region; a depth sensor assembly including at least one depth sensor, wherein the at least one depth senor is configured to capture 3D image data of an environment appearing in a second FOV, the second FOV at least partially overlapping the first FOV; a controller, having at least a processor and a memory, communicably coupled to the imaging assembly and depth sensor assembly. The memory stores computer-readable instructions which when executed by the processor causes the controller to take the following actions: analyze the 2D image data to identify a quantity of indicia present in the 2D image data; analyze the 3D image data to identify a quantity of items present in the 3D image data; and, responsive to the quantity of the indicia present in the 2D image data being equal to or greater than the quantity of items present in the 3D image data, transmit payload data of at least some of the indicia present in the 2D image data to a host.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides new and innovative devices, methods, and apparatuses for discerning the presence and characteristics of objects that are passing in front of an indicia decoding device. In an example, a device comprises a 2D imaging assembly, a depth imaging assembly, and a processing device configured to analyze data from the depth imaging assembly to determine a number of items that are in a field of view of the depth imaging assembly during a period of time, analyze data from the 2D imaging assembly to determine a number of indicia that are present in a field of view of the 2D imaging assembly during at least a portion of the period of time, compare the number of indicia with the number of items, output a determination as to whether the number of indicia matches the number of items, and responsive to determining that the number of indicia does not match the number of items, transmit a message to an alert module.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides new and innovative systems, methods, and apparatuses for detecting non-decode events in indicia scanning settings. In an example, a system comprises a depth imaging assembly, a 2D imaging assembly, and a processing device, wherein the processing device is configured to attempt to decode an indicium affixed to a first item that is passing through at least one of a field of view of the 2D imaging assembly or a field of view of the depth imaging assembly, determine a first characteristic associated with the first item based on depth data from the depth imaging array, and responsive to a failed attempt to decode the indicium, detect a second item that is passing through the field of view of the 2D imaging assembly and the field of view of the depth imaging assembly, determine a second characteristic associated with the second item based on depth data from the depth imaging assembly, determine if the first item is a same item as the second item based on comparing the first characteristic and the second characteristic, and responsive to determining that the first item and the second item are not the same item, transmit a message to an alert module that is indicative of a non-decode event.

Abstract: Techniques for product scanning are provided herein. The techniques may include analyzing a first set of images of items passing through a product scanning region of a indicia reader to decode a first indicia associated with a first item; analyzing the first set of images to determine first parameters related to characteristics of the first item; storing the first parameters locally on a memory associated with the indicia reader; analyzing a second set of images of items passing through the product scanning region to decode a second indicia associated with a second item in the second set of images; analyzing the second set of images to determine second parameters related to characteristics of the second item, and, in response to the decoded first and second indicia being the same, comparing the first and second parameters, and generating an alert based on a difference between the first and second parameters.
