Motorola / Symbol DS6707 / DS6708 Handheld Imager Scanner
The Motorola / Symbol DS6700 1D/2D Imager Scanner (DS6707 / DS6708) combines the functionality of a bar code scanner, digital camera and document scanner in a single, cost-effective device. From point-and-shoot simplicity to accurate bar code scanning to capturing full-size documents, this device is the right tool for the job. Text enhancement technology makes the scanner able to handle even the finest-grain text. Omni-directional scanning and a wide working range means that even novice users can begin scanning with minimal training.
Ample resolution - 1.3-megapixel camera handles images, bar codes, and documents.
Combined functionality - Supports for all major 1D, PDF, postal and 2D symbologies.
Disinfectant-ready design - Allows safe wipe-down and cleansing with a wide variety of harsh chemicals
RSM (Remote Scanner Management) - Lowers IT expenses by enabling remote management from a central location.
Text enhancement technology - Ensures text legibility in scanned documents.
Multiple on-board interfaces and universal cable - Ensures compatibility with future technology.
Omni-directional scanning, wide working range - Eliminates need to align item and scanner, cutting down on training time and cost.
Optional hands-free Intellistand - Enables presentation scanning and automatic switching between hands-free and handheld modes.
DS6707: RS-232C (Standard, Nixdorf, ICL, and Fujitsu); USB (Standard, IBM SurePOS, Macintosh) and Synapse connectivity allows for connectivity to all of the above plus many non-standard interfaces. DS6708: Includes above plus IBM 468x/469x and keyboard wedge
*Note: Imaging characteristics only apply to the DS6707. The DS6708 does not support image transfer.

About 2D Barcode Scanners
A 2D Barcode Scanner can interpret two-dimensional barcodes, which store data in two dimensions, rather than in just a series of black and white bars. 2D barcodes look like checkerboards or a series of traditional barcodes stacked atop one another. 2D Barcode Scanners use both CCD and Imaging technology to read barcodes.
About Imager Barcode Scanners
An imager is a Barcode Scanner that really functions more like a digital camera than a laser scanner, and is capable of reading two-dimensional symbologies. Rather than bouncing one or several beams of intense light off of a barcode, the imager bounces a burst of light off of the barcode and back into a camera-like eye, essentially taking a picture. Unlike a laser scanner the imager does not need the barcode to be oriented in anyway (other than within the scan area) in order to be legible.
