About FS42 Fixed Industrial Scanner

FS42 is a fixed industrial scanner for high-speed barcode reading, deep-learning optical-character recognition and machine-vision applications. Two- and five-megapixel sensor configurations support identification and inspection across production, packaging and logistics lines.

An integrated neural-processing unit accelerates AI-based tools at the device. Zebra Aurora software configures decoding, OCR and vision workflows and allows software licences to expand the scanner’s capabilities over time. Industrial communications and configurable optics, lighting and accessories support integration into automated equipment.
