Systems and methods for changing an aimer blink pattern responsive to a decode event

Abstract

Imaging devices, systems, and methods for capturing image data for an object appearing in a field of view (FOV) are described herein. An example device includes: an imaging assembly; an aiming assembly; and a computer-readable media storing machine readable instructions that cause the imaging device to: (i) initiate a first aiming state responsive to receiving an indication of a trigger event; (ii) capture the image data of the object appearing in the FOV while operating in the first aiming state; (iii) transition from the first aiming state to a second aiming state responsive to a successful decode event associated with the indicia, wherein the light source is to emit light in the second aiming state such that an observable appearance is different in the second aiming state than in the first aiming state; and (iv) otherwise refrain from transitioning from the first aiming state to the second aiming state.
