Multiple Code Reading Applications Made Easy

btomasino — Fri, 02 Nov 2012 15:32:02 +0000

Reading more than one barcode at a time is a challenging application for many manufacturing and material handling engineers. In these applications there is a need to read multiple codes of the same symbology as well as multiple codes of mixed symbologies within one field of view (FOV). Even more difficult is reading one or more codes on multiple sides of a package to verify that the codes match or to output both sides' read results as one piece of data .
