Abstract: Adapters for handheld barcode readers and handheld barcode reader assemblies are disclosed herein. An example adapter is configured to be attached to a handheld barcode reader having a housing defining a head portion and a base portion and a barcode reading module positioned at least partially in the head portion and having a second field-of-view (FOV) directed through a scan window in the head portion. The adapter includes an adapter housing, a means for attaching the adapter housing to the base portion of the housing of the handheld barcode reader, and a vision camera having a first FOV directed through a base window formed in the adapter housing.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for using an indicator window of a handheld scanner as a trigger are disclosed herein. An example handheld scanner includes: a housing; an image sensor to capture image data through a front-facing opening; an indicia decoder; an indicator window positioned to face generally away from the front-facing opening and toward a user when the handheld scanner is in a handheld position; a light source disposed inside the housing to emit indication light through the window to provide an indication; a light detector disposed inside the housing and positioned to detect a reflection of the indication light received from an object positioned in front of or on the window outside the housing; and a processor configured to control a mode of the handheld scanner and/or a device in communication with the handheld scanner in response to the light detector detecting the reflection of the emitted indication light.

Abstract: Handheld barcode readers and assemblies are disclosed herein. An example handheld barcode reader includes a housing defining a head portion and a base portion, a vision camera positioned in the base portion, a barcode reading module positioned at least partially in the head portion, and a controller in communication with the barcode reading module and the vision camera. The vision camera has a first FOV directed through a base window in the base portion and the barcode reading module has a second FOV directed through a scan window in the head portion. The controller is configured to decode barcodes read by the barcode reading module, receive captured images from the vision camera, and synchronize the barcode reading module and the vision camera such that the vision camera does not capture images when the barcode reading module is active.
