Compared to earlier versions, Sherlock 6.3 supports decoding of additional variants of the RSS14 symbology, which is designed to allow more information to be coded into a smaller space. Sherlock’s SmartBar algorithm can now decode RSS14 Stacked Omnidirectional, RSS14 Truncated, RSS14 Limited and RSS14Composite Component A. New optional features for Sherlock 6.3 include OCRplus, which provides a robust platform for optical character recognition in environments that include poor contrast and significant background noise.
