Technology Definition
Barcode scanning is a convenient, low-cost data capture technology used in professional environments for identification of people and objects. There are 3 types of barcode scanning technologies: Area imaging, laser and linear.

The F5 barcode scanner can track parts and availability


Area imaging technology is ideal for close range barcode scanning applications or anywhere omni-directional and/or 2D imaging is needed. 2D barcodes are being used more often as they carry so much more data in a small space than traditional linear barcode. Area imagers can read almost anything without regard to orientation. Linear imagers work exceptionally well at medium to close range and excel at reading poor quality or masked barcodes. They are also superior at reading higher density barcodes which occur when the code is reduced in size, typically to conform to various types of small packages. (Source: Intermec)
