Abstract
Methods and systems for avoidance of unintended indicia scanning are disclosed herein. An example system may include an imaging device comprising: (1) one or more image sensors; (2) a processing assembly communicatively coupled to the one or more image sensors and configured to: (i) instruct the one or more image sensors to capture the image data including a plurality of image frames over a FOV, (ii) decode an indicia in an initial image frame of the plurality of image frames to generate decoded indicia data of the indica, (iii) determine a first location associated with the indicia in the initial image frame, (iv) determine a second location associated with the indicia in a subsequent image frame, (v) determine whether a positional difference between the second location and the first location exceeds a threshold value, and (vi) transmit the decoded indicia data of the indicia to a host processor.
