Artificial intelligence accelerates Auto-ID

In the world of automatic identification, artificial intelligence is now more than just a buzzword: AI-supported solutions speed up numerous processes - from precise barcode scanning to automatic object recognition.

Smart barcode scanning

Whether poorly printed or damaged barcodes in retail or tiny DPM codes on metal surfaces in industry: machine learning has significantly increased the capture speed and first read rate. The latest barcode scanners outperform their predecessors in all areas - even in difficult lighting conditions or when heavily soiled.

The powerful cameras of the latest mobile computers, combined with AI, enable a completely new solution: all barcodes are automatically captured and processed from photos or videos. This technology significantly increases speed, especially for stocktaking or mixed pallets.

Simply use texts digitally

Not all relevant information is always available in barcode form, but only as text. Traditional OCR (Optical Character Recognition) has so far only been able to reliably capture certain fonts. However, AI takes this technology to a whole new level: even tiny font sizes, poor contrast between text and background and even handwriting are now recognised quickly and reliably.

The modern software only extracts the required text, with all processing running directly on the powerful mobile devices. This makes modern OCR up to ten times faster than manual input.

More than just barcodes

The most advanced AI solutions in Auto-ID go beyond barcodes and text: parts, goods and parcels can be recognised directly. Modern checkout scanners compare barcode data with the items actually captured, effectively helping to reduce shrinkage. In production, AI-supported object recognition significantly speeds up quality control and error detection. Measuring parcels is also becoming easier: instead of time-consuming manual measurements, dimensions can be captured directly upon collection using a mobile device.

AI - the new turbo in Auto-ID

The combination of artificial intelligence with proven Auto-ID technologies creates new opportunities in almost all sectors - from logistics to production and retail. The benefits are clear: higher recognition rates, fewer errors, faster processes.
