Sells Bluetooth barcode and NFC/RFID readers, rugged mobile scanning products, and camera-scanning software. Most revenue comes from product sales, with CaptureSDK connecting the portfolio to third-party mobile applications and a distributor-led channel connecting it to end users.
Builds Bluetooth barcode and NFC/RFID readers, rugged iPhone workflow products, and SocketCam camera-scanning software for mobile point-of-sale, field service, logistics, manufacturing, access, medical, and education workflows. CaptureSDK gives application developers one integration layer across the hardware and camera software, turning readers into components of third-party mobile applications across iOS, Android, and Windows.
Reaches end users mainly through app providers, distributors, and resellers, while online stores provide a direct channel. Designs products and test equipment, maintains software compatibility as mobile operating systems change, and completes final assembly, testing, packaging, and distribution in Fremont; component manufacturing is outsourced across the United States, Mexico, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, and China. Demand depends on app providers and on Apple, Google, and Microsoft platform support.
