1. An indicia reading terminal comprising:

  • an illumination subsystem;

    an imaging subsystem comprising an image sensor array and an imaging optics assembly operable for focusing an image onto said image sensor array;

    a polarization sensor;

    a housing incorporating said illumination subsystem, said imaging subsystem, and said polarization sensor;

    wherein said indicia reading terminal is adapted based on said polarization sensor to at least one of control said illumination subsystem and capture one or more images; and

    wherein said indicia reading terminal is operable to attempt to decode a decodable indicia using the one or more images.
