A wireless scanner streamlines the process of reading barcodes or QR codes by eliminating the need for physical cables. It employs an optical sensor to capture the code's image, decode the information, and transmit it wirelessly to a receiver. The receiver then interprets the data for further processing. This technology has become indispensable across multiple sectors, including logistics, manufacturing, retail, healthcare, libraries, and event management.
The system comprises the scanner unit, which includes the optical sensor and wireless transmission module, a receiver that interprets the data, a power supply for operation, and a casing to protect and house the components. Wireless scanners are designed for versatility and ease of use, available in handheld, fixed, and wearable formats to suit various operational needs.
Key advantages of wireless scanners include mobility, allowing users to move freely without being hindered by cables, broad compatibility with different types of codes, and enhanced durability to withstand daily use in diverse environments.
