  Smart Tools

"Smart" tools and devices have RS-232 or similar communications ports built in. Members of this category include:

    • scales, (including weight-in-motion)
    • measuring tools (both hand-held and automatic),
    • dimensioning and cubing systems,
    • micrometers and calipers, and
    • other devices.

They are included in the AIDC family because they provide the same advantages of by-passing key entry of data that the other technologies offer. They're included here because you should consider them when developing an AIDC system.
