OEM Datasheet: SwiftDecoder Bar Code Decode Software

Honeywell's SwiftDecoder bar code decoding software has been instrumental in the AIDC industry's acceptance of digital-imaging technology for bar code scanning. Area-imaging scanners powered by SwiftDecoder have industry-leading read rates and aggressively decode virtually all 1D, 2D and postal bar codes.

Created in 1989 by then Omniplanar Inc. to solve the once unimaginable task of decoding poorly printed or damaged 1D and 2D bar codes traveling on conveyor belts at speeds in excess of 600 ft/min (3.05 m/s), SwiftDecoder is now used by the world's largest postal and package distribution facilities. It is regarded as the ‘Gold Standard'.

SwiftDecoder is also found in high-performing bar code scanners used by companies around the world, including hand-held area-imaging scanners and fixed-position scanners, as well as mobile computers and smartphones.

Optimized to maximize accuracy and minimize processing time, SwiftDecoder's robust algorithms find, auto-discriminate and decode bar codes regardless of condition or image quality, including: In direct comparisons, SwiftDecoder successfully recognized and decoded up to 71% more bar codes than its competition.
