“The company’s piloting of AR to support the NHS’s inventory management system is an innovative direction for the technology. The NHS remains a cash-strapped public organisation. By putting scanning software onto mobile devices, healthcare organisations can replace dedicated scanners and make significant cost savings on hardware and maintenance.”

“Scandit offers scanning software that helps companies replace bulky scanners by turning ordinary smartphones into enterprise grade scanners. It also provides a set of mobile apps… that helps a company get started if it doesn’t have an app”

“Scandit has developed patented scanning technology that is designed to significantly decrease the amount of time it takes to scan a barcode.”

“Augmented reality for enterprise” is the sort of phrase that surely hits all of the right neurological pleasure centers for VCs. AR has also always been a key part of the Scandit picture.”

“The Scandit Case is part of Scandit’s evolving product line, including mobile software and cloud services designed to mobilise mission-critical enterprise workflows across the entire supply chain including Order Entry, Proof of Delivery, Inventory Management and more.“

“AR and computer vision are among the hottest technology trends of the moment, it’s easy to see why Scandit is attracting so much interest from the VC realm: It’s an established company with big-name customers that is investing in the latest technologies to advance its business.”

“Platforms like Scandit are viable threat to data capture industry leaders as these enable consumer devices to facilitate enterprise-grade barcode scanning.”

“With Scandit’s technology, retailers are letting consumers find out more information about a product and shop from any mobile device by scanning a product’s barcode, and salespeople are enhancing customer service…”

“One of the past hurdles for new wireless technologies, like self-checkout and Internet of Things integrations, was the cost of the various bar code and other image readers. An Amazon Go “just walk out” kind of experience once seemed unattainable. Now with common mobile devices and sensors, similar tech can be within the reach of many retailers. Scandit is one of the solution providers leading the progress in “frictionless” scan-and-go self-checkout, among other areas. Now Scandit has received a level of funding from the likes of a venture capital investment firm like Alphabet’s GV that may allow it to leapfrog competitors and deliver more of what retailers need in-store and behind the scenes.”

“Fully-customizable and cross-platform, allowing businesses to transform smartphones and tablets into enterprise-grade scanning devices without the need to purchase separate standalone barcode scanners.”
