Claim 10:
11. A multi-function illuminator, comprising:
at least one of a plurality of bright field LEDs for generating bright field illumination and a plurality of dark field LEDs for generating dark field illumination;
a circuit board comprising at least one of the plurality of bright field LEDs and the plurality of dark field LEDs;
a light pipe, with an open frame structure, attached to the circuit board to transfer dual- field, multi-color, multi-directional illumination, wherein a front opening of the light pipe comprises chamfered light output ports at the front opening of the light pipe to provide illumination uniformity with optimized chamfer angle and chamfer surface texture to support emission of the dark field illumination in various orientations;
a controller for controlling at least one of the plurality of bright field LEDs and the plurality of dark field LEDs; and
a camera mounted on the circuit board, through an opening on the circuit board, with a lens of the camera, viewing at a front opening of the light pipe.
