Sensors / Magstripe / Barcode

Decode nearly any kind of 1D (striped) barcode in your project using this adorable compact barcode scanner. We've looked all over for a small, light, low-power module that can be easily integrated. This OEM scanner has a little camera inside that takes 100 photos per second, instead of using a 'scanning mirror' assembly. This means its less likely to get damaged or out of alignment. Please note: this is a camera-based not laser-based...

Decode what's hidden on your credit cards, or use it for an access system - this mag-stripe card reader can decode all three tracks! We like this small and easy to use mag-stripe reader for being so microcontroller-friendly. Instead of a USB port, it has a PS/2 interface and acts like a 'keyboard'. In fact, its designed to be a 'pass through'/'keyboard wedge' device for point-of-sale terminals. What's nice about...

Decode what's hidden on your credit cards, or use it for an access system - this mag-stripe card reader can decode the two most common tracks used, #1 and #2!

In fact, its designed to be a 'pass through'/'keyboard wedge' device for point-of-sale...
