IoT Solutions
Cognex machine vision and barcode reading tools enable companies around the world to improve assembly verification, eliminate defects, automate production and identify challenging barcodes reliably across a wide range of industries and applications.
Enterprise-Grade Scanning on Smart Devices Scandit mobile computer vision software brings unrivaled scanning performance to any app on any smart device, turning it into a powerful data-capture tool. Our patented scanning technology can be integrated into virtually any app running on a camera-equipped smart device. The software is designed for enterprise-grade use with market-leading scan speeds and accuracy and is scalable to support large implementations. Barcode Scanning Combining high-performance barcode scanning software with a mobile device adds a new level of speed and efficiency to workflows across the many industries that use barcodes. Text Recognition (OCR) Optical character recognition (OCR) added to a smart device instantly reads alphanumeric text on items such as passports & ID cards, VIN codes in automotive, LOT or REF codes in healthcare or manufacturing. Augmented Reality (AR) Overlay Information is displayed on the device screen with an AR-overlay. The data source can be anything from product or delivery details to flight information, stock counts or patient verification.
Cross Company's Integrated Systems Group provides control system design, system integration, programming services and product fulfillment to industry and municipalities. We guide our clients in making sound decisions for factors that are relevant to their manufacturing system performance. We execute projects using proven methodologies to minimize project risk and provide value in the services we deliver.
