Worn on the index or middle finger, ring scanners leave both hands available for lifting, sorting and packing — no need to pick up or holster a handheld between scans.
Most ring scanners offer auto-trigger or proximity scanning — a simple tap or wave activates the scan, reducing repetitive strain and speeding up throughput.
Ring scanners attach over work gloves with adjustable straps, making them ideal for cold storage, freezer warehouses and PPE-required environments.
Long-shift batteries of 14–18 hours ensure uninterrupted scanning for day and night shift teams without mid-shift charging downtime.
Bluetooth BLE ring scanners pair with smartphones, tablets, rugged handhelds and PCs — works with any Bluetooth-enabled WMS, EPOS or pick-to-light system.
Weighing under 45g, ring scanners cause no fatigue even after a full 12-hour shift — designed for intensive scanning roles in fulfilment, 3PL and retail.
