Honeywell Launches Slimmest Scan Engine and Ultra Compact Decoding Board for 2D Barcode Reading

FORT MILL, S.C., July 6, 2016 - Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today announced the release of the N6600 Series Ultra-Slim Area-Imaging Engine and its miniature decoding board Mini DB, which together enable small mobile devices to quickly and accurately capture data from barcodes.

Measuring just 6.8 millimeters in height, the N6600 series is one of the slimmest and most compact engines of its kind currently on the market. It can be embedded in mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablet sleds or wearable scanning solutions used in retail, distribution center, logistics and parcel delivery environments.

Designed for rugged environments, the N6600 series features a global shutter with the ability to accurately read most damaged or poorly printed barcodes, as well as a high motion tolerance of 5.84 meters per second. It incorporates either a green LED aimer or a red laser aimer depending on the environmental conditions and use cases.

"The N6600 series is the slimmest 2D scan engine on the market," said Emre Onder, vice president, electronic and optical sensing, Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions. "It offers a range of data capture applications that can be used by workers in a variety of rugged environments, from delivery drivers attempting to scan barcodes outdoors in bright sunlight to distribution center workers who need to quickly capture data from a package's damaged label."

The N6600 series features a scan rate of 60 frames-per-second and accurately reads 2D barcodes.
