QR Codes and Robotics: Bridging Digital and Physical Worlds

January 9, 2025 by David Edwards

The integration of QR codes in technology has revolutionized industries, and robotics is no exception. By using a qr code maker, developers, and engineers can enhance the efficiency and functionality of robots in once unimaginable ways.

QR codes provide an elegant solution for embedding information, facilitating interaction, and enabling dynamic communication between robots and their environments.

From autonomous navigation to streamlined communication, QR codes are becoming an integral tool in advancing robotics. [Read more…] about QR Codes and Robotics: Bridging Digital and Physical Worlds

How These 4 Tax Implications Affect Automation Contracts

December 18, 2024 by David Edwards

Taxes and automation might not seem connected, but they intersect in surprising ways. Contracts involving robotics introduce unique financial considerations, especially with independent contractors or freelancers.

Tax implications aren’t just legal obligations; they influence decision-making in drafting agreements. Businesses must factor in how tax codes treat equipment usage, R&D credits, and even foreign partnerships.

What about individual workers managing 1099s for tech-driven gigs? Or companies grappling with compliance as their workforce evolves alongside innovation? The automation era transforms how taxes work. [Read more…] about How These 4 Tax Implications Affect Automation Contracts

What is ICCID? Understanding SIM Card Number Check Codes and ICCID Numbers

October 29, 2024 by Mark Allinson

Effective SIM card management is becoming more and more important in the world of IoT (Internet of Things). One of the most important components of a SIM card is the ICCID, a unique identifier that plays a key role in managing and identifying SIM cards.

In this article, we will explore what an ICCID is, how it differs from other SIM identifiers, and why it is so important for managing IoT SIM cards. We will also discuss how ICCID numbers are used to manage and track SIM cards in IoT devices.

Quantum-Resistant Cryptography: Protecting the Future

July 12, 2024 by Mark Allinson

Kee­ping our data secure is very important. Quantum compute­rs may soon break current codes. So, experts work on cryptography that resists quantum hacks. The U.S. Comme­rce Department se­lected four strong secre­t codes.

These code­s use tricky math problems to block attacks. Secre­tary Gina M. Raimondo highlighted this crucial project. NIST picked seve­n top choices and eight backups from 82 options over six ye­ars. But switching will take time. Challenge­s include ensuring smooth integration and le­gal battles over origins. [Read more…] about Quantum-Resistant Cryptography: Protecting the Future

Create Free QR Codes With Ease

February 19, 2023 by Mark Allinson

QR code generators online make it easy to create QR codes. Simply enter the data you want to encode, choose the desired QR code size and error correction level, and then download the QR code image.

Some QR code generators can easily create free QR codes and even allow you to add custom images or logos to your QR code, making it even more personal. [Read more…] about Create Free QR Codes With Ease

SICK launches new image-based code reader

August 28, 2020 by David Edwards

SICK has expanded its portfolio of image-based code readers with the launch of the Lector61x.

The compact device detects 1D, 2D, and stacked codes for identification, inspection, or content monitoring in production processes.

The trend toward smaller batch sizes in manufacturing and production processes drove the development of this compact code reader, which SICK says enables manufacturers to maintain short throughput times, in spite of individualized products, and remain competitive in production.

Sick launches new compact image-based code reader

April 23, 2019 by David Edwards

sick lector621 IM0078983 copy

Sick has launched a new compact image-based code reader, Lector621, for reliable detection of 1D, 2D, stacked codes, and plain text.

The high-performance DPM – direct part marking – decoder can read laser or dot-peened codes perfectly, even in the case of low contrast levels, contamination, or poor code quality.

This fills a gap in Sick’s existing portfolio of code readers, by providing a compact solution with increased reading distance, resolution, field of vision, and scanning frequency. [Read more…] about Sick launches new compact image-based code reader
