Abstract
A code reader includes a color imager and a processor operably coupled to the color imager. The processor is configured to: set an RGB imager pixel color gain; capture at least one image with active or ambient illumination using the color imager with a calibration target in view; calculate a mean value of R, G, B pixels for the at least one image; use a color plane as a reference, determining a color gain to set calibration parameters; capture at least one additional image using the calibration parameters; and save the calibration parameters if mean values of the R, G, B, pixels for the at least one additional image are within a predetermined range to be used by the camera for subsequent image capture, and apply to each pixel of the image a corresponding color correction matrix from among a plurality of stored color correction matrices.
