GM65 QR Barcode Scanner Module

The GM65 scanner module from DFRobot reads 1D barcodes and 2D codes such as QR code, Data Matrix and PDF417 in about one second, on paper and on screens. Thanks to its own illumination it also reads in poor light and in the dark. It is connected to a computer directly with the included USB cable or to a microcontroller via UART. The module is configured by scanning setting codes from the manual.

Features:

• Reads 1D and 2D codes, also from screens
• Own illumination with 617 nm LED and white 6500 K LED
• USB and UART, cables for both included
• Configuration via setting codes from the manual
• Reading angles: roll 360°, pitch ±60°, skew ±65°

Application Examples:

• Vending and self-service machines
• Access control with QR code
• Recording items and stock with a microcontroller
• Wi-Fi barcode scanner with ESP8266
