An imaging scanner is provided. The image scanner has a housing. The housing contains a mirror, a camera, a transparent window for scanning, a transparent window for viewing positioned above the transparent window for scanning such that anything presented below the transparent window for scanning is visible in the transparent window for viewing. The transparent window for viewing has an electronic display embedded therein. The imaging scanner also includes an image decoder linked to the camera and to the electronic display. The mirror is positioned such that incident light on the mirror from the transparent scanning window will be reflected within the camera's field of view. The camera is configured to scan images presented at the transparent window for scanning. The image decoder is configured to decode the scanned images. The electronic display is configured to display the decoded information on the transparent window for viewing.
