Digimarc Barcode digital watermark reading distinguishes the Datalogic PD9531-BK-RT within the PowerScan Retail line, enabling GTIN data to be captured from watermarked packaging without requiring label placement to be located first. The scanner uses a 2D area imager over a corded cable connection and supports USB, serial and keyboard wedge host interfaces in a black handheld chassis weighing 11.64 oz. Symbology coverage spans all standard 1D codes including GS1 DataBar linear families, plus 2D formats -- Aztec Code, China Han Xin Code, Data Matrix, MaxiCode, Micro QR Code and QR Code -- alongside stacked codes such as PDF417, MicroPDF417, MacroPDF and GS1 DataBar Stacked Omnidirectional, and nine postal code standards. An IP65 rating provides protection against moisture and dust exposure. The unit measures 8.3 in tall, 2.9 in wide and 4.3 in deep, and is suited to POS checkout and desk scanning applications in retail environments.
