News – Scorpion Vision Cloud Barcode Reader Service

The Scorpion Vision Cloud Inspection Service is a machine vision IaaS – Infrastructure as a Service. The service provides professional machine vision processing power to smartphones, and notebooks and other device that generates images in the cloud. It can easily be integrated with any Cloud Service from Amazon, Google Compute Engine, Azure Services Platform and more.  The service concept can provide a significant reduction in deployment cost where multiple smartphone and notebooks are used for image collection.

To demonstrate the concept we have provided a  Barcode Reader Service where you can process your barcode images on our Scorpion Vision Cloud Service.
