AsReader unveils AsCameraX

Now in its newest version called AsCameraX, this Camera Barcode Scanning Software was developed by AsReader’s engineering team in Japan and is available with a one-time installation fee and a nominal subscription fee for users to simply do one thing—to use company phones as readers, especially for retail. Available on the Google Play Store, AsCameraX is currently in use at a number of retail locations including a high-end men’s clothing retail chain. AsCameraX allows staff to do what had previously been impossible. With a scan rate of 1,100 scans per minute or approximately 18 scanned tags per second, AsCameraX does what no human or other barcode scanner can do in that short amount of time.

At NRF, smartphones will be in use to demonstrate how the technology works. No hardware is needed for AsCameraX, unlike competitors, and the software is used solely on Android company-issued smartphones such as the ruggedized Kyocera DuraForce Pro 3 and DuraSport 5G Androids.
