How to choose a barcode scanner for supermarkets? For supermarkets, the two most common types are handheld scanners or scanning platforms, so you can choose according to the size of your supermarket and the speed of cash register. If your store is small in size and the demand for cash register is not particularly large, you can choose a handheld barcode scanner or scanning platform according to your preferences, but if your supermarket is large, then we recommend you choose fixed scanning platform. Because this large supermarket has a large flow of people, the requirements for cash register are fast and accurate. If you use a fixed scanning platform, you can liberate the hands of the cashier. There is no need for a handheld scanning method. At the same time, the scanning platform can be set to automatically sense or the always-on scanning mode, which greatly increases the speed and efficiency of cash register, and also enhances the user experience of supermarket shoppers.

I believe that each of us has experience in supermarket shopping. If you are careful, you will find that most of the goods will have a black and white, uneven size barcode. The barcodes of the supermarket industry are relatively standard, and the amount of information that needs to be stored is not large, so most of them are one-dimensional barcodes and two-dimensional barcodes are rare in supermarkets. So it is enough to use a one-dimensional code scanner in supermarket, no need to use a two-dimensional code scanner.
