Blending Physical and Digital Worlds
We combine mobile barcode scanning, text recognition with augmented reality (AR) to turn smart devices into powerful data capture and visual display tools.
Augmented reality (AR) overlays add digital information to the image of a physical object on the device screen. This means retail employees can see stock levels by scanning products in a retail aisle, airline staff can view passenger details from a boarding pass scan, nurses scan to cross-check patients with medication, and delivery drivers see special instructions just by scanning a package.

How Does the Magic Work?
We use a powerful feature called MatrixScan to capture multiple barcodes in a single sequence and add information to the device screen as an AR-overlay. These are some of the most common ways this powerful tool is used.
Search & Find
Hover the device over many packages to highlight the correct one.
Sorting & Loading
View details for optimum loading order in deliveries.
Shelf Management
See stock levels, delivery dates, price validation, expiry dates.

Who Uses Mobile Scanning with Augmented Reality?
Businesses in retail, transport & logistics, healthcare and manufacturing are making regular processes like Retail Shelf Management, Airport Baggage Tracking, Delivery Search & Find, Patient Identification and Asset Tracking simpler and faster with Scandit-powered mobile apps.
Retail
Retailers choose Scandit mobile scanning and AR-overlays to power customer and employee apps for things like Self-scanning Shopping or Inventory Management to reduce costs, increase efficiency and improve customer satisfaction.
Healthcare
Workers in hospitals, pharma logistics and social care need constant access to real-time information about patients, medication and supplies to improve patient care. Scandit supports tasks like patient verification and medication tracking.
Post, Parcel & Express
Every minute counts in the delivery business, particularly in the crucial Last Mile. Sorting, loading and delivering parcels is dramatically improved if workers carry Scandit-powered smart devices instead of bulky, costly dedicated scanners.
Field Service
When Field Technicians have the right part for the right customer on the right van, first-time fix rates shoot up. Scandit scanning solutions accelerate processes like parts tracking and van-loading and puts real-time information out in the field where it’s needed.
Air Travel
Cost, efficiency and customer service are the main reasons Scandit is used in air travel. The ability to view passenger, baggage and flight information from a quick scan of a boarding pass or passport with a mobile device, is changing airport operations.
Manufacturing
The Scandit solution can improve tracking processes and maximize manufacturing efficiency. Use AR overlays to unlock real-time instructions and tracking information for employees – while replacing expensive dedicated scanners with inexpensive smart devices.
