Use of a barcode scanner attached to the hand

While browsing our offer in the online store, you may wonder what a barcode reader, or 2D and QR code reader, attached to your fingers is actually good for. Isn't it too expensive? How to use it effectively?

The main advantage of such a barcode scanner is that even when scanning, both hands remain free. A worker assembling a product from incoming parts on a moving belt will appreciatethe fact that he does not have to constantly pick up and put down the hand-held barcode scanner, but that it is always at his fingertips. It can certainly then meet much higher standards, even with the requirement that every single part used for picking must be checked off the company's system. Read codes can enter the ERP from many sensors on workers' hands at once, from up to 100 metres away from a singlewireless access point that is already directly connected to the system.

In warehouse operations today, warehouse workers popularly use portable terminals with built-in barcode scanners when picking orders. Even so, they must first pick up the terminal, scan the codes, put the device away, and then pick the goods from the shelves and put them in the crate. But what if the warehouse worker had a portable terminal attached to the forearm of one hand and scanned the barcodes on the products directly as he moved it, as the Honeywell 75E scanner or the RS31-2006 assembly allows? What do you think?

The same set can be used conveniently when checking price tags in the supermarket, when taking inventory, when collecting statistical data, and in many other applicationsapplications where, in addition to scanning barcodes, the operator needs to check off items on a printed list or make running notes.
