'''Automated Identification and Data Capture''' (Auto-ID Data Capture; AIDC) refers to the methods of identifying objects, collecting data about them, and entering that data directly into [[computer]] systems (i.e. without human involvement). Technologies typically considered as part of AIDC include [[bar codes]], [[biometrics]], [[magnetic stripe]]s, [[OCR]], [[RFID]], [[smart cards]], and [[voice recognition]]. AIDC is also referred to as “Automatic Identification” or “Auto-ID”.
