Global Automatic Identification And Data Capture Market Definition

Automatic Identification and Data Capture is a wide category of technologies that are used to gather data from an individual, image, object, or sound without manual data entry. These technologies are commonly used for managing security, delivery, inventory, assets, and document, among others. Automatic Identification and Data Captures are employed in a relatively wide spectrum of specific technologies such as Barcodes, RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), Biometrics including iris and facial recognition systems, Smartcards, and Optical Character Recognition (OCR), and Speech recognition, among others. Some of the industries using this technology include manufacturing, transportation, warehouse, distribution, healthcare, and government institutes among others.

Automatic Identification and Data Capture accelerate data collection, helps in reducing the cost of data entry, and also help in preventing errors related to identification and/or data collection. Technologies such as Barcode readers are used for tracking, identification, and counting across various industries. An increase in the number of smartphone users along with the e-commerce boom, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to drive the Automatic Identification And Data Capture Market in the coming years.

Global Automatic Identification And Data Capture Market Overview

Governments across the countries are increasingly favoring the use of Automatic Identification and Data Capture technologies for various industries in order to combat issues such as human errors, incorrect data capture, among others leading to increased operational expenses. The standards and regulations adopted by the government will help businesses improve information visibility, operational efficiency, minimize operating costs, and increase customer satisfaction by ensuring correct data gathering.

For instance, in India, the government is planning to mandate a quick response (QR) code-based payment option compulsory for shops. In China, the government had mandated the widespread use of QR-based health certificates which stored the travel and health history of an individual. The system largely helped contain the virus in the country. Thus, with increasing awareness about the convenience of technologies such as QR codes, the Automatic Identification And Data Capture Market is expected to witness robust growth in the coming years.

Automatic Identification And Data Capture have made a remarkable presence in industries such as retailing, manufacturing, shipping & distribution, hospitality, banking, and healthcare. Almost every product within retail uses barcodes. They are used as pricing tags within retail; these barcodes track items within the stores and keep information such as the price, where it was made, and what batch of goods it came from. In addition, retailers continue to find new ways to engage customers and build better customer relationships, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.

For instance, click-and-collect became increasingly popular, especially in North America during the pandemic. This boosted demand for Automatic Identification And Data Capture tools. In addition, retailers also came up with self-checkout terminals, further boosting demand for technologies such as barcode readers. In the manufacturing industry. It also helps in streamlining the processing time in the manufacturing industry. In the healthcare industry, barcodes help streamline the patient admittance process, track medication and care admission, and identify patients throughout their entire stay.

Many hospitals use barcode technology to manage patient records. Another rising application of Automatic Identification And Data Capture is expected to be from the travel and tourism industry owing to the COVID-19 pandemic. Leading companies in the automated identification and data capture technology market are devoting more efforts to enhancing the technology and swiftly extending its applications across various sectors as a result of the constantly rising demand for Automatic Identification And Data Capture devices.
