Claim One:
1. An indicia reading terminal for decoding decodable indicia, said indicia reading terminal comprising: a plenoptic imaging subsystem comprising an image sensor array and plenoptic imaging optics operable to project a plenoptic image of a space containing the decodable indicia onto said image sensor array; a hand held housing encapsulating a least a portion of said plenoptic imaging subsystem; a trigger for initiating operation of the plenoptic imaging subsystem to obtain plenoptic image data of the decodable indicia; an illumination source for projecting illumination onto the decodable indicia; an aimer for projecting an aimer pattern onto the decodable indicia; said indicia reading terminal operable, responsive to detecting that said trigger has been actuated by an operator, to obtain plenoptic image data from said image sensor array; said indicia reading terminal operable to obtain first rendered image data based on at least a portion of the plenoptic image data; and said indicia reading terminal operable to attempt to decode the decodable indicia represented in the rendered image data.
