Image-based better than RFID?

What is so unique about image-based data capture

No other existing auto-ID technology can identify so many barcodes, with a 100% detection rate.

Image-based or handheld scanning?

This depends on your requirements. Similar to RFID solutions, image-based solutions like Visidot are more suitable for high-volume, highly automated applications.

Image-based or RFID?

RFID is a better fit when there is no line of sight with the tags. However, if the location of a specific asset in a pallet is important, and the correction of shipping errors is necessary, locating the problematic assets would be a very time-consuming effort with an RFID system. Visidot makes this a trivial task. The production environment is also an important consideration. For example, the presence of metals or liquids negatively affects the RFID detection rate.

When the tag cost is an issue, Visidot has the advantage that it does not require investing in costly tags, as it uses existing barcodes.
