This past year they introduced the DataMan 500 reader with the VSoC (vision system on a chip) technology. By integrating the image chip onto the same chip that locates and decodes a one or two dimensional barcode they can capture up to 1000 images a second and decode up to 90 one dimensional barcodes a second. The algorithm improvements they have made and the speed of this unit make it possible to perform applications that laser based code readers struggle to do. They have made improvements and added tools to the In-Sight software that make it easier to set up and manage applications that have been difficult to perform otherwise (i. e. bead tracking tool). Watch for other new products and improvements in the year to come. While they may not be inventing products that will take the world by storm, they are making incremental advances that make the current applications easier to handle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
