Abstract:
An apparatus, method and assembly for minimizing oversaturation of an image of a barcode or other symbol due to specular reflection, and minimizing holes in the images using multiple light-detecting sensors each having a field-of-view (FOV) that intersects the central illumination axis of an illumination source, and that intersects the FOV of the other light-detecting sensor.

Claim (Index 28):
An assembly comprising:\n a housing having a scanning head and a handle, the scanning head having an illumination diffuser and a window; one or more memories collectively partitioned into a plurality of memory partitions; an illumination source disposed within the housing behind the window and at a center of the illumination diffuser, the illumination source arranged to emit light and the illumination diffuser arranged to diffuse the emitted light, the diffused emitted light having a central illumination axis; and an imaging engine supported by the scanning head and comprising a plurality of light-detecting sensors disposed equidistant about the central illumination axis and proximate a perimeter of the illumination diffuser, wherein each light-detecting sensor: 1) has a different field of view extending through the window, each field of view at least partially intersecting the central illumination axis and each other field of view at an imaging plane, and 2) is adapted to capture at least one of: light reflected from a target and light emitted from the target; wherein the imaging engine is adapted to read an image from each of the plurality of light-detecting sensors, and wherein the imaging engine is further adapted to store the image from each of the plurality of light-detecting sensors in a respective memory partition.
