  • positioning a first imager and a second imager within a reader housing and in at least approximately co-planar positions such that the first and second imagers are mountable on a common circuit board;

    directing a first field of view of the first imager via a first minor set from a position of the first imager into the view volume from a first perspective;

    directing a second field of view of a first section of the second imager via a second minor set from a position of the second imager into the view volume from a second perspective;

    forming a first image at the first imager of the first field of view into the view volume from the first perspective;

    forming a second image at the second imager of the second field of view into the view volume from the second perspective;

    processing the optical code based on one or more of the first and second images.
