Barcode scanning and dimensioning

A system comprising:

• a two-dimensional (2D) camera device;
• a three-dimensional (3D) camera device;
• one or more processors;
• and
• data storage containing instructions executable by the one or more processors for causing the system to perform operations comprising:
• acquiring a 2D preview image of an object, wherein the 2D preview image is obtained from a 2D camera device;
• processing the 2D preview image to determine a location of a code on the object;
• acquiring a 3D image of the object, wherein the 3D image is obtained from a 3D camera device;
• processing the 3D image to determine depth data associated with the object;
• acquiring a 2D data capture image of the object based on the depth data in the processed 3D image, wherein the 2D data capture image captures the code, and wherein the 2D data capture image is obtained from the 2D camera device;
• and
• reading the code based on the 2D data capture image.

A method comprising:

• acquiring a two-dimensional (2D) preview image of an object, wherein the 2D preview image is obtained from a 2D camera device;
• processing the 2D preview image to determine one or more dark areas;
• acquiring a three-dimensional (3D) image of the object based on the one or more dark areas in the processed 2D preview image, wherein the 3D image is obtained from a 3D camera device;
• adjusting at least one of an exposure time of the 3D image and a gain of the 3D image based on the one or more dark areas in the processed 2D preview image;
• and
• processing the 3D image to determine dimensions of the object.
