FREMONT,
Calif., March 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Socket
Mobile, Inc. (NASDAQ: SCKT), a leading provider of data capture and
delivery solutions designed to enhance workplace productivity, is
excited to announce the addition of SocketCam C860 camera
scanning support for its React Native CaptureSDK.
React Native is a popular open-source framework created by Meta
Platforms (Facebook) that developers use to build multi-platform
applications from a single codebase. Since its launch in 2015,
React Native has gained popularity with developers thanks to its
cross-platform design, fast iteration speed, and ability to be
integrated into existing projects. It's used in thousands of
popular applications, including Facebook, Instagram, Tesla, Uber
Eats and Walmart. Now, Socket Mobile is adding advanced camera
scanning support for its React Native developers.
SocketCam C860 is the newest version of the SocketCam product
family that turns any mobile device into a robust scanning solution
capable of reading damaged and other difficult-to-read barcodes in
all conditions. SocketCam C820, released last year by Socket
Mobile, offers excellent scanning capabilities in good conditions
and is completely free to integrate and use. It's an excellent
choice for budget-conscious users with basic scanning requirements
in normal conditions. Socket Mobile is now introducing a more
advanced, subscription-based version that enables React Native
developers to serve users with more demanding scanning
requirements.
"We are thrilled to help our React Native partners serve their
end users throughout their data capture journey, providing them
with an upgrade to our more robust software scanner," said
Dave Holmes, Chief Business Officer
at Socket Mobile. "The introduction of SocketCam C860 for React
Native is a transformative shift that enables our developers to
support users at every end of the spectrum, from basic scanning
requirements to the most advanced.
"To simplify and streamline switching from camera-based to
hardware scanning, we've built SocketCam into our CaptureSDK. App
providers only have to manage and maintain a single, free SDK
integration in their app. This one-time integration ensures all
work seamlessly, from free scanning to enhanced software scanning
to dedicated hardware scanners. End users can easily move from a
free camera scanner to an enhanced version and then to dedicated
hardware scanners as their needs change, making their data capture
journey smooth and effortless."
SocketCam C860's best-in-class technology leads the industry for
software decoding, bringing a competitive edge against even the
best commercial scanners on the market. A key strength of the C860
is its ability to swiftly and accurately read damaged barcodes.
This, combined with its speed and proficiency in capturing barcodes
even in poor lighting conditions, sets the C860 apart from others
in the industry. The result is enhanced productivity and
efficiency, as users can now easily manage more complex daily
scanning needs.
The challenge for application developers is to service a wide
range of customers with various data capture requirements, from the
price-sensitive to the performance-sensitive, and even multiple
data types. CaptureSDK with SocketCam enables consistent data
capture performance across these diverse requirements. C820 and
C860 bring the data capture benefits of CaptureSDK to all end users
instead of only those who purchase a physical scanner. Integrating
CaptureSDK is entirely free for app developers, simplifying their
development process by providing a one-stop solution to all Socket
Mobile products (hardware and software) via a single, easily
maintainable integration.
To take advantage of its capabilities, React Native developers
must ensure that their applications use the latest version of
CaptureSDK with SocketCam enabled. From there, the flexibility
extends to the app's end users as they now have the power to
leverage the C820 for free or easily switch to the C860 if they
choose. The decision is solely in the end users' hands, keeping
Socket Mobile's technology accessible to all.
Discover how CaptureSDK with Socketcam can Simplify your
Development Cycle and enable smarter data management for your
users.
