The Microscan UID LDP Compliance Verifier reads, identifies, and verifies the unique identification code (UID) marked on an item. The system of marking every item with a unique bar code or symbol which contains specific information was first developed by the United States Department of Defense (DoD) to keep track of all the equipment in the possession of the U.S Military. This unique code or symbol makes for better asset management, as every item owned by the Department of Defense can be authenticated and tracked accurately. Even in case of theft or loss, the unique code allows for easy tracking and recovery of the items.
The DoD has established a complete set of rules and regulations to be followed while marking an item with its unique identification code. The code is specific to each item and is never reused, making it easy to distinguish all items from each other. The identifier is actually a data string unique to the item and placed in the form of a bar code on the item itself. It is very much like the unique social security number that is used to distinguish U.S citizens from each other. Just as a person's social security number does not change, similarly the unique identification code for each item remains the same even if the item is reengineered or modified.
