Industrial Standards for Ring Scanners
February 16, 2024
A ring scanner is a convenient wearable device that effortlessly scans barcodes and is worn on the finger like a ring. Designed to offer a hands-free solution, ring scanners enable workers to move freely and complete tasks without the constant inconvenience of picking up and putting down a handheld scanner. This results in efficient and accurate barcode scanning capability, streamlining the scanning process and enhancing overall productivity.
Safety
- Finger and Skin Friendly: Should not cause harm to fingers or skin even after prolonged wear.
- Low Power Consumption: This should generate minimal heat and consume low power.
- Sleek Design: Should have a smooth design without sharp edges to prevent snagging on clothes or objects.
User-Friendliness
- Lightweight: Should weigh less than 20g for comfortable, prolonged wear.
- Easy to Wear and Connect: Should be effortless to wear, remove, and connect to other devices.
- Intuitive Controls: Preferably equipped with double-sided controls for ease of use
Stability
- No Device Freezing: Should not freeze, preferably not more than once per week.
- Stable Bluetooth Connection: You should maintain a stable Bluetooth connection with no more than one unintentional disconnection weekly.
- Robust Electromagnetic Compatibility: Should not interfere with or be disturbed by other devices.
- Drop-Proof: Should withstand falls from at least 1.8 meters; preferable survival from 3-meter drops.
- Water and Dust Resistance: Should have a minimum rating of IP65, preferably IP66 or higher.
Performance
- High Accuracy: Should have an error rate of no more than 1 error per million scans.
- Fast Response: Should be capable of scanning at least 100 times per second (50 scans for 2D scanning).
- Long Battery Life: Should offer continuous operation for at least 8 hours after a full charge.
As retail chains transition into the O2O (online-to-offline) model, efficient and accurate order processing has become a core competitive advantage. The HYCO Ring Scanner and W563 Wearable Computer, as a powerful IoT device duo, work seamlessly to elevate the voice picking process. This perfect partnership revolutionizes traditional picking workflows, enhancing efficiency and optimizing operations, setting a new standard for retail efficiency.
In the era of Industry 4.0 and smart logistics, the competitive edge has shifted from "scale" to "efficiency." Often, the secret to efficiency lies in seemingly small tool innovations—like a ring-shaped barcode scanner. The HYCO Ring Scanner (represented by the W28 model) is a revolutionary tool that redefines traditional scanning with its ultra-lightweight design, powerful performance, and versatile adaptability. It unlocks a new “man-machine integration” work mode for industries like warehousing, logistics, and manufacturing.
With the advancement of technology, ring scanners are increasingly popular in industries such as logistics and retail. Due to their convenience and efficiency, ring scanners have become essential tools for many businesses to enhance productivity. However, some users may wonder if charging a ring scanner directly via USB could potentially damage the device. This article will address that concern.
