Newland OmniDirectional Barcode Scanners

Newland Omnidirectional barcode scanners use a series of straight or curved scanning lines in varying directions in the form of a starburst or other multi-angle arrangement which are projected at the barcode symbol and one or more of them will be able to cross all of the bars and spaces, no matter what the orientation.

Omni-directional barcode readers and Newland presentation barcode scanners are most familiar through the horizontal scanners in supermarkets and retail outlets, where packages are slid over a glass or sapphire window. There are a range of different omni-directional barcode scanners available which can be used for differing scanning applications, ranging from retail point of sale applications with the barcodes read only a few centimetres away from the scanner to industrial conveyor scanning where the unit can be a couple of metres away or more from the code.
