Focus™ provides users with increased throughput for virtually all 1D and 2D bar code reading applications - including poorly printed or damaged bar codes - by incorporating high resolution imaging, FirstFlash™ scanning technology, and true contact reading into an affordable solution.
Metrologic's Focus is a high performance handheld area imager. This omni-directional scanner decodes all of today's standard bar codes including 1D, RSS, PDF417, microPDF, EAN/UCC Composite, Matrix and Postal Codes regardless of orientation. Where image capture is concerned, Focus combines a high-resolution CMOS sensor with an extremely powerful processor to provide a wide array of outputs at high rates of speed.
For years, Metrologic has been designing and manufacturing fixed position industrial imaging systems that are used by some of the world's leading parcel handling companies, distribution centers, and postal services. That core technology combined with optical design expertise produced the Focus, a hand-held device built to endure today's toughest work environments, packed with the most complete set of features, ease of use, and stylish, modern design.
Focus can be utilized in a variety of applications such as; retail, healthcare, shipping/receiving and supply chain management. Its laser like reading of 1D codes and omni-directional reading of 2D codes combined with a competitive price make it the obvious solution to a broad array of applications. With its arsenal of features, Focus is the all-in one scanner.
