Free hands
Glove/ring scanner
Quick and easy scanning
Increase efficiency and productivity
Glove/ring scanner
A ring scanner typically consists of a small device mounted on a ring worn on one of the user’s fingers. The device contains a barcode decoding engine and a small scanner that can read barcodes on products or objects by simply sliding your finger over the barcode. Some models of ring scanners may also have built-in feedback mechanisms, such as vibration or audio signals, to confirm that the barcode has been correctly scanned.
Glove scanners work similarly to ring scanners, but they are integrated into gloves instead of rings. These scanners allow the user to scan barcodes by simply pointing at them with their hand, providing a more natural and intuitive scanning experience.
Check out our guide: How to choose the right barcode scanner
Ring scanners and glove scanners are particularly useful in industrial, warehouse, retail, and healthcare environments where workers often need to handle items while scanning barcodes quickly and efficiently. These scanners allow users to work more efficiently and productively by freeing up their hands for other tasks while still being able to perform real-time barcode scanning.
Greater freedom of movement
Why choose a ring scanner?
Freedom of movement: Ring scanners allow the user to have their hands free for other tasks while still being able to scan barcodes. This is especially useful in situations where the user needs to handle objects or perform tasks that require the use of both hands.
Increased productivity: By wearing a ring scanner on the wrist, users can scan barcodes quickly and easily without having to grab a separate scanning device. This can reduce the time it takes to complete tasks and increase productivity in workflows.
Ergonomics: Ring scanners are designed to be lightweight and comfortable to carry, minimizing strain on the user’s hands and arms during prolonged use. This can help reduce the risk of work-related injuries and increase user comfort and well-being.
Better accessibility: Ring scanners can be more accessible and easier to use in certain environments or work situations where traditional barcode scanners may not be practical or appropriate. This can include tight spaces, high shelves or other situations where it’s difficult to maneuver with a traditional scanner.
Compared to traditional barcode scanners, ring scanners offer greater freedom of movement, increased productivity, better ergonomics and better accessibility in certain situations. These factors can make them an attractive choice for businesses and organizations that need efficient and flexible barcode management solutions.
