Pass-through color camera without signal

Abstract

The present disclosure provides an indicia decoding device with a printed circuit board (PCB) that allows signals from internal imaging assemblies to pass through a sealed cavity boundary to an external host. This device comprises a decode module, an upright and horizontally mounted window, and multiple imaging assemblies housed within a sealed cavity. The PCB is partially located inside and outside the cavity, featuring ports inside and outside the sealed cavity. Signals from secondary imaging assemblies bypass the decode module, utilizing electrically conductive paths on the PCB, ensuring signal integrity without modification. The PCB may also include image processing circuitry, with results transmitted to the host.
