Abstract
A presentation scanner allows an operator to easily place an object being scanned within the scanner's field of view in order to enhance usability of the scanner. A partially transmitting and partially reflecting surface, like a mirror, is used. An aiming pattern or target indicator is projected from an aiming source to the surface. The aiming pattern or target indicator is seen by an operator who aligns the object, which is reflected from the surface back to the operator, to be placed over or within the aiming pattern that appears at the surface. Once aligned, a camera captures the image of the optical code.
