Automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) is the methods of automatically identifying objects, collecting data, and entering data directly into computer systems. AIDC is a family of technologies that identify, verify, record, communicate and store information on discrete, packaged, or containerized items. The plans for AIDC are as simple as the application is difficult. If all items are equipped with a minute identifying device, our daily life and lifestyle will go through a major transformation. There will be no products running out of stock or being wasted because we will know exactly what is being consumed. Also, information is gathered quickly and accurately due to the process is automated, rather than depending on pen, paper, and human involvement.

 

The most common technologies used to identify, and capture data are:

• Barcodes
• Handheld and fixed-position scanners and imagers
• Radio frequency identification (RFID) tags and readers, and voice recognition, weighing and cubing devices
• Typical applications include receiving and putaway, inventory picking, order fulfillment, determination of weight and volume, and tracking and tracing throughout the supply chain.

 

In recent years, many businesses have transferred their data using paper to electronic systems. This is to enhance their productivity, mobility, security, and reliability. Sejati Solutions is here to assist you if you need any solutions.
