The DataMouse Pro has been developed
specifically to read the toughest Data Matrix
direct part marks (DPM). The DataMouse ‘on
contact’ approach blocks out ambient light
and sets the optimum focus. This allows the intelligent
multi angle, multi intensity lighting to create
the best real-time on-screen image possible for
Data Matrix decoding.
The DataMouse™ connects
to a PC/Laptop via the USB2.0 connector and requires
no external power supply making a laptop connected
DataMouse™ a truly portable solution. |
