The SX3000CÂ’s high resolution engine enables the capture of color images and both color and conventional bar codes. Its high-quality, high resolution 1.3 megapixel image resolution is ideal for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that require color capabilities within their information capture products, including scanners and kiosks.



CHICAGO, IL (PRWEB) September 16, 2004 -



– Symagery today announced here at the Frontline Solutions Conference & Expo its SX3000C, the first color megapixel imager for the AIDC industry.



The SX3000CÂ’s high resolution engine enables the capture of color images and both color and conventional bar codes. Its high-quality, high resolution 1.3 megapixel image resolution is ideal for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that require color capabilities within their information capture products, including scanners and kiosks.



This latest offering from Symagery, which will be demonstrated at the show at booth #121, enables a variety of applications, including public safety and security, claims management, inventory/asset management and counterfeit/fraud prevention.



For example, insurance examiners inspecting damaged vehicles, would be able to photograph them using the color engine in this scanning device. Delivery services could both scan a package when delivered and also create a color photograph of the goods if refused because of damage. Additionally, kiosks could incorporate the SX3000C to capture and validate identification and to record color photographic records of transactions.



Features include the following



• Easily integrates into hand-held or fixed-mount scanners or portable data collection terminals, that already have interface functionality.



• Includes standard sized scan engine with detailed software development tools to customize hardware design.



• Consists of solid-state technology, which means no moving parts and less maintenance for the final product. Safe LED-based illumination removes the risks involved with lasers without sacrificing performance.



• Offers unparalleled field of view, providing end-users with an unprecedented image capture and bar code reading area.



• Delivers superior performance through its image clarity and omnidirectional reading. This means fewer scans and more accurate first time reads – even with multiple bar codes – for the operator.



• Provides the versatility to read in any environment through its lens configuration options. Solid performance and the ability to capture color images in addition to a wide selection of both color and conventional bar codes – linear, stacked and 2D – make the SX3000C imaging system cost-effective from design through production.



“We’ve always prided ourselves on offering OEMs the most rugged and highest resolution image-based systems,” said Ron Caines, president and CEO, Symagery. The SX3000C, with the industry’s first color capabilities, now provides our customers with capabilities that will enable them to develop even more highly differentiated applications.”



The SX3000C will be demonstrated over the 3 days of the show and will be generally available to OEMs beginning 1st Quarter 2005.
