Abstract

Devices, systems, and methods for providing assistance during use of a data capture device are disclosed. One example method includes capturing, by the data capture device, images of an object and associated indicia that results in a non-decode. The method may provide the images to a first model to determine a cause of the non-decode, obtain scanning instructions associated with resolving the cause of the non-decode, and output the scanning instructions to an output device. Another example method may include capturing images of an object and providing the images to a second model to determine object classifications of the object. The method may obtain object instructions associated with scanning the object, and output the object instructions to an output device.
