We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Barcode Reader", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Miniature motors don't compromise performance from Delta Line Europe UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Engineered specifically for markets where miniaturisation is key, nuvoDisc is ideally suited for space-constrained applications such as portable respirators and barcode scanners". A few weeks before, we featured the news release Instrument verifys tyre type from Oxford Sensor Technology: "Location of the centre of the wheel and bolt/stud holes is achieved by the greyscale camera system, allowing fast and accurate location for pick and place or wheel fitting robots".
 
In December 2006, we covered the news from Pepperl+Fuchs USA concerning its SCANEX barcode reader - take a look at Barcode readers developed for hazardous areas which says: "New barcode readers provide effective production management in hazardous locations".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Saelig Company, CCD-based barcode reader offers easy integration, as well as IPC network provides protected route expansion from DLoG (UK), and Fieldbus enable flexible machine control from Profibus Group.
