'Cost effective alternative' to RFID

7 June 2005


A new version of the Visidot Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC) system is claimed to offer an accurate and cost effective solution for rapid multiple asset AIDC and asset tracking.

The new system tracks assets that are uniquely labelled with standard 2D Data Matrix bar codes or with Visidot Colorcodes. As assets pass in front of the Visidot Reader, it captures hundreds of labels simultaneously and transmits the information to an image processing system, which decodes the data from each label. This information is exported to a data management system in XML or other standard formats. Images can be stored in a separate Image Bank. An 'easy-to-use' Site Management System controls the entire process.

The new Visidot is said to introduce the ability to detect and decode all variations of the Standard (ISO/IEC 16022) Data Matrix 2D bar code quickly and accurately. Support for this standard has been added to the commercially proven Visidot Colorcode currently implemented.

Roger Hecker, product marketing manager for Visidot says: "The system delivers all the inherent benefits of traditional bar code technology, yet far surpasses it in terms of speed and efficiency of code capture - especially for tracking multiple assets. In addition, at accuracy levels of near-100 per cent in actual installations, the Visidot solution is both more reliable and more cost effective than RFID solutions."
