The Opticon OPN-2006-00 is a compact, cordless 1D laser barcode scanner that reads up to 100 scans per second and connects to iOS and Android devices, making it suitable for mobile inventory, retail, and data-entry workflows that use 1D barcodes.
Recommended For
- Mobile inventory and asset-tracking workers who want a pocket-size scanner to send 1D barcode scans to a paired phone or tablet while moving between items.
- Booksellers and resellers who scan printed book barcodes during listing or stock checks and prefer a separate Bluetooth scanner over repeatedly using a phone camera.
- Field sales, service, or retail staff who need to scan common 1D product codes into a Bluetooth-ready mobile device during visits or point-of-sale tasks.
- Developers integrating barcode capture into a mobile workflow who want a small Bluetooth scanner with an official SDK and programmable scanning behavior.
