Scanning the scanners
Data-capture equipment has evolved significantly since PSC first deployed a laser scanner in 1974 at a Marsh Supermarket in Troy, OH, where the pioneering system read a bar code printed on a "10 Pak" of Wrigley's chewing gum. Since that debut, PSC has improved the speed and accuracy of its equipment, added weighing capabilities, introduced handheld scanners, and implemented RFID, Bluetooth, and WiFi features.
