The MDI-12 is a compact OEM barcode scan engine designed for manufacturers and system integrators who require reliable barcode scanning performance in space-constrained devices. Combining an ultra-wide-angle optical system, integrated decoder, and high-speed CMOS imaging technology, the MDI-12 enables seamless integration into kiosks, payment terminals, point-of-sale equipment, medical devices, smart lockers, vending machines, and other embedded systems.

Engineered for both printed and on-screen barcode reading, the MDI-12 delivers fast and accurate decoding of 1D and 2D barcodes while maintaining exceptional performance in low-light and high-brightness environments. Its energy-efficient architecture and compact footprint make it an ideal scanning solution for modern OEM applications.

Product Highlights include:

• High-performance 120 fps CMOS imager with fast global shutter technology and automatic exposure control, enabling rapid and accurate 1D and 2D barcode scanning and decoding in dynamic scanning environments.

• Full spectrum illuminated 2D CMOS imager designed to read both printed labels and barcodes displayed on mobile devices, making it ideal for applications involving digital tickets, mobile payments, loyalty programs, and electronic access credentials.

• Ultra-wide-angle lens provides a broad field of view, allowing barcodes to be captured from multiple positions and angles. The optical system reads standard QR codes at close range and wider barcodes or larger QR codes at distances up to 25 mm.

• Highly sensitive imaging sensor enables barcode scanning even when very little ambient light is available. In many applications, the MDI-12 can successfully decode labels using only illumination from nearby displays, screens, or status indicators.

• A dedicated sunlight-resistant optical filter and industrial-grade CMOS sensor control provide dependable barcode reading in lighting conditions up to 120,000 lux, ensuring stable performance in outdoor and high-brightness installations.

• Powered by an advanced 800 MHz processor, the MDI-12 delivers fast decoding while minimizing power consumption during operation, standby, and startup making it particularly suitable for battery powered and wireless devices.

• Designed specifically for embedded applications, the MDI-12 supports multiple integration configurations, enabling manufacturers to incorporate barcode scanning into a wide variety of products and custom hardware designs.

• Built to operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -4 to 140°F / -20°C to 60°C, making it suitable for demanding commercial, industrial, and outdoor applications.

• Backed by a two year warranty
