Navigating the Challenges of Asset Tracking

One of the prevalent issues in asset management is the difficulty in scanning assets when multiple barcodes are positioned in close proximity. This challenge can hinder the efficiency and accuracy of asset tracking processes.

Revolutionary Augmented Reality Technology in Asset Tracking Apps

To address this challenge, we are excited to announce the integration of augmented reality (AR) technology into the camera view of our SD PRO scan engine, currently available on Android OS, with an iOS version slated for release later this year. This innovative feature enhances our asset tracking app by allowing users to simultaneously preview the values of multiple barcodes. With this capability, users can easily select the correct barcode to capture and submit to an asset database, significantly improving the process of validating barcodes and ensuring accurate asset management.

Future Innovations for Barcode Scanning and Validation in Asset Tracking

Looking ahead, we are exploring several promising technologies to further enhance the barcode scanning and validation capabilities of our asset tracking app:

  • Decode + Validate + Auto-Selection: This feature will enable the CodeREADr app to decode each barcode in the viewing window, temporarily record all values, verify these values against a client database or a regular expression (regex) pattern, and automatically select the correct barcode value for the scan record. This advancement aims to streamline the process of barcode scanning and validation, making it more efficient and error-free.
  • Decode + Record-All + Manual Selection: This option will allow the CodeREADr app to decode each barcode in the viewing window, temporarily store all values, and present the user with a list of these values. After optionally verifying the values against a client database or regex pattern, the user can manually select the appropriate barcode value for the scan record. This feature provides flexibility in managing barcode scanning and validation, accommodating various asset tracking needs.

The continuous improvements in smartphone and tablet camera technology, coupled with advancements in CodeREADr’s scanning and decoding technology, pave the way for a future where augmented reality processes, particularly with validation capabilities, will significantly enhance the efficiency and accuracy of asset tracking apps.

By leveraging augmented reality and barcode scanning technologies, our asset tracking app is set to revolutionize the way businesses manage and track their assets, ensuring precise validation of barcodes and streamlined asset management processes.
