NEWARK, Calif., Sept. 3, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Socket Mobile,
Inc. (NASDAQ: SCKT), a leading innovator of data capture and
delivery solutions for enhanced productivity, announced today that
it is expanding its SocketScan® 700 Series to include the
S760 - a multi-use barcode scanner that includes scanning
DotCode and most international travel IDs and
passports.
The S760 is the first Socket Mobile scanner that supports
DotCode barcodes. In addition, it reads most travel
identification documents, such as passport, international travel
IDs, drivers' licenses and 1D and 2D barcodes. The S760 was
designed to support the many POS outlets that require electronic
age verification, such as cannabis shops and retailers selling
tobacco.
DotCode is a barcode symbology which encodes serial
identifiers at the unit level, which enables tracking and tracing
of high-value goods, high-volume manufactured products and
regulated items. DotCode is a low error form of code that
helps deter theft and avoid corrupted labels. It can be read
quickly with real-time data, include data such as expiration dates
and lot/serial numbers.
The S760 is also ideal for shops that offer duty-free purchases
that need to scan a passport as part of the transaction. This is a
requirement in many countries and one that is actively being
deployed in Japan in time for the
2020 Olympic games.
"The S760 is designed to minimize the equipment needed during
the checkout process. The S760 barcode scanner will scan the
UPC on merchandise, scan the OCR alphanumeric information on
passports and IDs, and keep merchants in compliance by scanning the
latest DotCode," said Vanessa
Lindsay, Senior Product Manager.
The S760 barcode scanner is available in multiple colors from
Socket Mobile's on-line store for $476.00. It can also be purchased via Socket
Mobile's world-wide distributor network. Optional versions
with charging docks and charging stands are also available.
