Barcodes and AI are becoming quite the dynamic duo. Here’s a few ways they intersect: Automated Scanning AI-powered systems can use advanced image recognition to read barcodes even if [...]
Barcodes fail due to two main reasons: Poor Image Quality: Scanners decode images. Inaccurate printing, lamination, shrink wrap and substrate characteristics can impact scanning Incorrect Data [...]
While it is self-evident why barcode verification is necessary, it is less obvious why periodic recalibration of a verifier is important. What could be changing and making it necessary? Isn’t a [...]
