Abstract: Imaging devices, systems, and methods for capturing image data for an object appearing in a field of view (FOV) are described herein. An example device includes: an imaging assembly; an aiming assembly; and a computer-readable media storing machine readable instructions that cause the imaging device to: (i) initiate a first aiming state responsive to receiving an indication of a trigger event; (ii) capture the image data of the object appearing in the FOV while operating in the first aiming state; (iii) transition from the first aiming state to a second aiming state responsive to a successful decode event associated with the indicia, wherein the light source is to emit light in the second aiming state such that an observable appearance is different in the second aiming state than in the first aiming state; and (iv) otherwise refrain from transitioning from the first aiming state to the second aiming state.

Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting an object scan approach path and optimizing an imaging assembly in response to the scan path are provided. Image data captured from one or more fields of views is used to identify an object and determine, over a series of images, a scan path of that object relative to the imaging assembly. From the scan path, a lead-in side and a lead-out side of the imaging assembly are determined and used to adjust operating parameters of the imaging assembly to bias toward a right side scanning configuration, a left side scanning configuration, or a central scanning configuration. These operating parameters may include adjusting the wakeup, exposure, illumination, indicia identification, and scan avoidance configurations, for example, for optimum scan path operation.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to wakeup systems for indicia readers. In an example embodiment, the present invention leverages data sensed through a horizontal window of a bioptic barcode reader to switch from a sleep mode to a read mode. In particular, the sensed data may be used exclusively or as a determinative factor for waking up the barcode reader.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting medically related events at a point of sale are disclosed herein. An example method of detecting droplets associated with a sneeze or cough at a point of sale includes: capturing, by an image sensor associated with a checkout workstation, one or more images; analyzing, by one or more processors, the images captured by the image sensor associated with the checkout workstation, to detect an indication that one or more droplets associated with a sneeze or cough are present upon one or more equipment associated with the checkout workstation; and triggering, by the one or more processors, a disinfection of the checkout workstation responsive to detecting the indication that the one or more droplets associated with the sneeze or cough are present upon the one or more equipment associated with the checkout workstation.

Abstract: A barcode reader has a weigh platter and an off-platter detection assembly. The weigh platter is configured to measure a weight of an object and has a surface extending in a first transverse plane, a proximal edge, a first lateral edge extending non-parallel to the proximal edge, and a distal edge. The off-platter detection assembly includes a light emission assembly and a light detection assembly. The light emission assembly is configured to emit a collimated light beam along the first lateral edge, above the surface. The light diffusing barrier is positioned in a path of the collimated light beam and is configured to diffuse the light beam such that the light diffusing barrier appears to be illuminated when contacted by the light beam and appears not to be illuminated when not contacted by the light beam.

Abstract: At least some embodiments described herein are directed to a machine vision method, which involves capturing both a two-dimensional (2D) image of an object to identify a barcode and determine 3D features, and a three-dimensional (3D) image of the environment. The 3D image data is examined for the presence of the 3D object features. If a feature is missing, a digital fault detection signal is provided. If a feature is present, at least one parameter of the machine vision system is adjusted. The method also includes decoding the barcode and determining the object's orientation based on the barcode location in the 2D image.

Abstract: Bioptic barcode readers with multiple imaging devices are disclosed herein. An example bioptic barcode reader includes a housing with a generally horizontal window and an upright window, a barcode reading device positioned within the housing, a first imaging device positioned within the housing, and a second imaging device positioned within the housing below the first imaging device. The first imaging device has a first field-of-view directed out of the upright window, the second imaging device has a second field-of-view directed out of the upright window, and a first central imaging axis of the first field-of-view intersects a second central imaging axis of the second field-of-view at an intersecting angle that is greater than or equal to 15 degrees and less than or equal to 55 degrees. The second central imaging axis of the second field-of-view extends upward above the generally horizontal window at a second angle that is greater than 0 degrees.

Abstract: Methods and systems include using three-dimensional imaging apparatuses to capture three-dimensional images and analyze resulting three-dimensional image data to enhance captured two-dimensional images for scanning related processes such as object identification, symbology detection, object recognition model training, and identifying improper scan attempts or other actions performed by an operator. Imaging systems such as bi-optic readers, handheld scanners, and machine vision systems are described using three-dimensional imaging apparatuses and described capturing three-dimensional images and using with captured two-dimensional images.

Abstract: A product verification system for use in bagging areas is disclosed herein. An example product verification system includes a first imaging device having a first field of view (FOV) and a second imaging device having a second FOV. One or more processors of the system are configured to capture first image data from the first imaging device, and identify within the first image data one or more unloaded objects. The processors may also capture second image data from the second imaging device, and identify within the second image data one or more objects entering a loading plane. The processors may also identify identifying characteristics of the one or more objects entering the loading plane, and obtain identification data for the unloaded objects from the unloading plane. The processors may compare the identification data to the identifying characteristics to determine if each of the unloaded objects has entered the loading plane.
