Abstract

A wireless scanning system for a bar code scanner and a personal computer. The bar code scanner sends raw bar code data via a wireless connection to the personal computer. The personal computer decodes the raw bar code data, and sends the digitized version of the raw bar code data to a keyboard buffer, in order to simulate data from the keyboard at the personal computer based on the raw bar code data.
