Image-Based Barcode Reader
Simple Set Up: Hardware
• Focal length, working distance & field of View
• Code size: 1D > 1.2 ppm, 2D > 4 ppm
• Exposure/shutter
• Lighting – stable!
• Lens options:
• Liquid lens technology
• C-mount, S-mount lens
Liquid Lens Technology
High Speed Liquid Lens Technology
• No mechanical parts
or manual intervention
needed
• Fewer cameras needed for
applications requiring large
depth-of-field
• 2 to 3 milliseconds to refocus,
ensuring crisp images every
time
• Available in 8, 10, 16, 24,
and 35mm lenses
