Portland, OR, January 10, 2025. . . Visitors to the AsReader Booth #6763 at the 2025 National Retail Federation (NRF) show in New York’s Jacob Javits Convention Center this weekend will see a host of new advances in the retail space. Among the 1,000 exhibitors and more than 175 sessions, AsReader will show new ways to use RFID for inventory management, retail mastery, quick customer service, including self-serve terminals and software that turns any phone any a scanning device. AsReader--which literally was named to “use your phone as a reader”—is coming to the show armed with technology that makes smartphones even more important for business efficiency.
AsCode
Barcodes were historically designed to be read one-by-one with a dedicated device such as a laser and had several issues with devices reading them with a smartphone, such as reading distance and reading speed. In addition, two-dimensional codes are also designed to be read optically, so as the amount of information increased, the bits became smaller, and the reader was taxed with more and worked less efficiently.
