The Datalogic Heron is an extremely powerful hand-held bar code scanner at a favourable price. An innovative design makes it an ideal choice for all commercial applications in retail and logistics. Naturally, easy operation and high ergonomics are needed as much in retail as in other commercial or office applications. Both Heron versions have shown excellent characteristics in tests and withstand constant operational stress. The Heron models are based on the concept of an instinctive read distance of 0-20 cm from the bar code, which offers best results. The patented Green-Spot technology offers easy scans for both versions instead of an acoustic signal, users can choose to be alerted by a clearly visible Green spot on the bar code itself.
