Introduction

BOA Spot ID Overview
BOA Spot is a fully integrated vision sensor that has been designed for industrial ID
(Barcode, 2D Matrix and Text) applications. Packaged complete with application
software, BOA Spot ID offers a robust, easy-to-deploy fixed code reader and inspection
tool for the factory floor. BOA Spot is compatible with Windows 7, 8.1 and 10. BOA Spot
is not compatible with Windows XP.
BOA Spot Vision Sensors are rugged devices that can be integrated into existing
production lines, machinery or moving equipment. They are supported by standard
industrial M12 cables to further simplify and reduce implementation costs.
Rated for IP67 deployment when fitted with the M12 lens and lens cover, BOA Spot
vision sensors can be mounted in wash down factory environments without the need for
additional protective enclosures. The product is also available with a C-mount lens
option for greater image quality, operating distance and lighting flexibility.
