Factory equipment - PCs, screens etc

Hi,

I am after a bit of free education on factory hardware for Vantage...!

We've not got any in our factory yet, but we want to be progressing things
soon.

What kind of hardware do you use in the factory? I've heard talk of touch
screens, light pens, bar-code readers, tt5s (still don't know what one of
those is...!)...

can anyone give me a summary of the kind of hardware we will be needing?

At the moment we are looking at simply booking in and out of products, but a
little further down the line at data collection etc..

Thanks for any help.
