In the late 1990's Dave worked with Digital Convergence Corporation to invent and develop cuecat (trademarked :CueCat) which was a cat-shaped handheld barcode reader.

Other favorite commercial publications such as AdWeek, BrandWeek and MediaWeek also employed the technology.

Unfortunately the CueCat in its initial concept has been considered a commercial failure, although the technology invented by the company in 1998 and deployed on September 11, 2000 is considered to be the forerunner to many popular barcode scanning, photo recognition, and manual barcode input apps that are now employed on smart phone technology.

Although Digital Convergence and the CueCat system are generally assumed to be defunct, the Digital Convergence website remained as a ghost site through 2004. Previously, the website contained the following statement:

Currently the website contains information about the device, its history and information on the company licensing the resulting intellectual property which numbers more than 110 granted US patents.

Most of this was taken from the cuecat Wikipedia page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CueCat

According to ScanLife the EZcode is more size-efficient than the DM and QR. I wonder if the EZcode is quietly and surely taking up the market share? Is there any 2D barcode market share numbers out there to give us a better sense of the moves from different fronts (codes)?
