Abstract
Devices, systems, and methods for mitigating specular reflection are described herein. An example system performs a ranging operation via an imaging assembly. Based upon the ranging operation, the system determines a range value associated with a distance between the imaging assembly and an object in the field of view. The system compares the range value to a threshold range value stored locally in a memory of the imaging assembly. Responsive to the range value not exceeding the threshold range value, the system perform a decode operation. Responsive to decoding the indicia contained within the at least one image, the system terminates the decode operation.
