Barcode Scanners


2-D Imagers 2D scanners are designed to capture the 2D image of the barcode with what is in effect a digital camera and then decode the image internally to report the barcode data. These scanners can be used to scan 2D barcode types such as Datamatrix as well as the more common linear barcode types. They use special decoding software which makes it possible to capture barcode data from a digital image .
