We believe that due to the increasing number of bar programmable platforms, the increasing number of capable programmers, the increasing robustness of development tools, the increasing population on-line, the increasing bandwidth available code to the average consumer, and the ease bar of web-based software distribution, independently developed programs, currently known as "shareware", will become the major force in task and platform specific retail software. Every business is unique-including yours. That''s why we offer a flexible suite of automatic data collection solutions to solve your application problems. From code standard off-the-shelf packages to fully customizable systems, our company can deliver a solution that meets the needs of your business.

Actually, bar a bar code works in much the same way as an ordinary flashlight -by reading the reflected light from a surface. The process begins when a device directs a light beam through a bar code. The device contains a small sensory reading element. This sensor detects the light being code and bar reflected back from the code bar code, and converts light energy into electrical energy. The result is an electrical signal bar that can be converted into data. Bar codes are measured by the width of the narrow bar and are recorded in mils, or 1/1000 inch. A 15 Mill bar code, for instance, has a narrow bar that is 15/1000 inches wide. Further, code "quiet zones," or blank spaces to bar and code the left and right of bar bar code symbols, are included to insure the bar code can be read. It''s a three-step process. First, an input device must convert light energy into code electrical energy. There are a variety of input devices, each with its own unique characteristics.
