1. An apparatus for volume dimensioning via sensor fusion, comprising:

  • a housing capable of being carried by an operator;

    at least one two-dimensional (2D) image sensor disposed within the housing, the 2D image sensor configured to capture at least one image stream corresponding to a field of view (FOV), the FOV including at least one target object;

    at least one three-dimensional (3D) imager disposed within the housing, the 3D imager configured to generate 3D image data associated with the FOV, the 3D image data including at least one plurality of points associated with the target object, each point corresponding to a coordinate set and a distance from the apparatus;

    at least one processor disposed within the housing and operatively coupled to the 2D image sensor and the 3D imager, the processor configured to;

    a) distinguish the target object within the FOV by analyzing at least one of the captured image stream and the 3D image data;

    b) generate at least one holographic model corresponding to the target object by correlating the 3D image data and the captured image stream, the holographic model including at least one of a surface of the target object, a vertex of the target object, and an edge of the target object;

    c) determine at least one dimension of the target object by measuring the holographic model;

    d) detect at least one object identifier corresponding to the target object by analyzing the holographic model;

    ande) acquire object data corresponding to the target object by decoding the object identifier;

    a touch-sensitive display surface disposed within the housing and coupled to the processor, the display surface configured to;

    a) display the captured image stream;

    b) superimpose the holographic model over the captured image stream;

    c) receive control input from the operator;

    andd) adjust the holographic model based on the received control input;

    andat least one wireless transceiver disposed within the housing and configured to establish a wireless link to at least one remote source.
