Mobile phone reader

Barcode scanners capable of reading barcodes from mobile phone screens or other display screens are known as imager barcode scanners. These devices utilize imaging technology to capture a picture of the barcode and decode the data into text. They can efficiently read both 1D and 2D barcodes from the backlit screens of devices like mobile phones and tablets.

Key features of imager barcode scanners include:

• Screen Reading Capability: These scanners can capture barcodes from screens that are backlit or have a flash, a crucial feature for scanning barcodes presented by customers on their phones or other digital devices.
• Speed and Accuracy: Imaging technology enables fast and accurate scans, reducing the need for multiple barcode position adjustments.
• Durability: Designed to withstand the bustling environment of retail settings, these scanners are resistant to drops and shocks.
• Connectivity: They offer both wired (such as USB) and wireless (such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi) connectivity options.

Imager barcode scanners are particularly useful in retail environments that need to support barcodes stored on customers' mobile devices for promotions or discounts, making the checkout process quicker and more convenient.
