Summary:Various embodiments herein relate to automatically switching illumination for a scanning device based on detected reflections. In this regard, a reflection shape is detected in at least a first image related to an object associated with a direct part marking (DPM) indicia. Based on the reflection shape, one or more characteristics associated with the object are determined. Based on the one or more characteristics associated with the object, an illumination mode is selected from a plurality of illumination modes. Additionally, an illumination is projected via an illumination unit based on the illumination mode to capture a second image related to the object associated with the DPM indicia.
