hand scanner

Barcode reading device

A hand scanner is a portable device moved manually across a surface to capture images or read data.

Document scanners digitize pages by dragging the unit across paper.

Barcode scanners read product codes at checkout.

Biometric hand scanners authenticate identity by reading palm prints or hand geometry: Place your hand flat on the scanner.
