Perception™ HD SBS Whole Rack 2D Code Reader

Gain clarity with the Perception HD 2D Code Reader.

• Better speed, smaller footprint, and reliable reading
• Compatible with all 2D Coded tubes in SBS-format racks
• Less than 1 second total read time for a whole rack of tubes
• The option of integrated USB Linear 1D Barcode Reader

Now featuring an HD camera for more reliable reading of broad range of tube types.

Our range of single-tube and whole-rack 2D Code Readers are the result of over 15 years of continuous development and innovation, bringing the best products, with the most useful features, to the sample storage market.

Perception HD reader has a proven track record as part of sample storage and tracking systems, for applications including biobanks, compound libraries, and other high-throughput storage environments.

The Perception HD whole rack 2D & 1D Code reader offers fast identification of racked, 2D Coded sample storage tubes, without the need to remove tubes from racks.

Compact, very fast whole rack scanner for SBS-format racks of 2D data matrix barcode labeled sample storage tubes, ideal when speed of decoding and small size of reader are important.

Option available: Integrating a USB Linear 1D Barcode Reader for automatic and simultaneous reading of rack 1D barcodes.

Given the variety of 2D Coded tubes on the market, Perception HD is designed and developed with broad compatibility in mind. Perception HD can read any 2D Coded sample tube currently on the market, not only those supplied by FluidX.

Perception HD is supplied with a 5-year warranty.

Key Features

Compatible with any 2D Coded Tubes in SBS-Format Racks

• All FluidX Perception whole rack 2D Code Readers are compatible with all FluidX sample storage tubes as well as most other 2D data matrix coded tubes, including those supplied by Greiner, Matrix, Nunc and Micronic
• Perception HD 2D Code Reader will quickly read tubes in 24, 48, 96, 240 and 384-well rack SBS formats

Smallest, Most Compact 2D Code Reader Available

• The Perception HD 2D Code Reader has a much smaller footprint than any other whole rack reader on the market, saving precious bench space
• Operates without compromise for sample temperatures of -20°C

Better Speed

• Perception HD 2D Code Reader will present decoded data for a complete rack of 96 tubes in less than 1 second
• At FluidX, we believe the real measure of speed is the amount of time it takes from pressing “scan” to receiving the decoded data
• Other readers measure speed in terms of grab time, capture time or decode time

Dependable Decoding

• The FluidX team were involved in developing the very first 2D Coded sample storage tubes
• FluidX Perception whole rack scanners are the result of more than 15 years of continuous innovation and development

Wide Range of Data Output Options

• Simple and intuitive Graphical User Interface, results can be viewed directly or integrated with other applications
• Perception HD can output data to common LIMS-compatible files, such as text, TCP/IP, CSV and Excel
• Integration with database applications can easily be achieved via ODBC

Easily Integrated into Automated Systems

• Perception HD features TCP/IP Winsock connectivity for remote control of the reader functions for integration into robotic and liquid handling work cells
• Incorporates a gripper cut-out section around the scanning window to provide easy robotic access and handling of shallow racks

Additional Sample Security

• FluidX storage tube racks can be supplied with the option of carrying a unique 2D Code identifier
• All FluidX whole rack readers are capable of reading both tube and rack 2D Codes simultaneously, to provide automatic rack orientation and greater sample security

Rack Templates Save Set-Up Time

• Custom templates can be set up when a specific rack layout is used routinely, such as when a row is left empty or control tubes are placed in specific positions on a regular basis

“No Tube” Feature Eliminates Errors

• Perception HD is able to discriminate between a tube with a 2D code that cannot be decoded and an empty rack position.
• The reader will not attempt to decode empty tube positions, so data files are kept clean
• Reading speed is optimized as wasted data entry is eliminated

Option: Integrated Linear 1D Barcode Reader

• Integrating the USB linear 1D barcode reader provides automatic and simultaneous scanning of rack 1D barcodes for another level of sample security
