Customers have high expectations of retail businesses nowadays. In order to make shopping in a retail store an experience, retail companies must have full control not only at the point of sale (POS), but also in the warehouse for the inventory processes, and via the staff to help realize the individual purchasing preferences of the customers. Today, numerous products can be found on the internet at much lower selling prices. However, the retail industry has a crucial advantage over the internet: the immediate availability of goods. Therefore, the main task of any retail business is to keep the promise to their customers, which is the prompt availability of goods in the stores. In addition, retail businesses need to focus on realizing a unique shopping experience for their customers. Our innovative mobile data capture devices make such processes in retail much easier, while optimizing them at the same time. By using DENSO's modern scanners and handheld terminals, retailers have all the means to do a time-efficient inventory. That way, costs are saved and the working hours of the staff are optimized. As a result, management efficiency of the inventory and the incoming goods processes is achieved in the long term. One other result is that stocktaking can be reduced, thus saving storage costs for retail companies.
The new pocket-size scanner SE1-BUB-C weighs only about 70 grams and can be conveniently stored and carried in the pocket of the employees all day long in any retail store. Especially in retail, a lightweight and small sized device for mobile data capture is proven to be very beneficial. Additionally, the SE1-BUB-C is equipped with RFID reader. The scanner is designed for scanning at short distances of around 3 cm and prevents unwanted reading of other RFID tags that might be close by. In comparison, this is not possible with high-resolution RFID scanners designed for larger distances and for the scanning of several RFID tags at the same time. Another advantage of the SE1-BUB-C is that it can be easily connected to other Bluetooth® devices by simply scanning a setup code. For example, the scanner can be connected to different host devices such as data capture devices, and tablets. With the SE1-BUB-C, employees in retail environments can capture information more accurately, and thus offer their customers a modern shopping experience. Get here to the SE1-BUB-C product page.
Also highly relevant for retail businesses is our BHT-1600. It combines classic mobile data capture with the advantages of a smartphone.

The modern handheld terminal is equipped with the latest NFC technology. In the ruggedized version, the device is much more robust than comparable units to be found in the market today. Further key features of our new Android™ scanner are, in addition to its robustness, the fully integrated mobile data capture possibility and its ability to support all common standards of wireless communication, such as Bluetooth®, WiFi or 4G. Its appealing design, compact measurements, and light weight, also add to the advantages of this handheld terminal.

For those users who do not want to do without a keyboard on their handheld terminal, our BHT-1500 is the right choice. The barcode handheld terminal has the “Advanced Scan Plus” function, which makes it particularly powerful. The BHT-1500 weighs just 128 gm, making the device suitable for POS applications in particular. The handling is especially simple for female co-workers, for example shop assistants in retail, or users with small hands, due to the handiness of the scanner and its ergonomic body. Despite its lightweight and small size, the BHT-1500 also has an easy to read 2.0-inch color LCD dislay. Combined with an operation time of up to 85 hours, the BHT-1500 can increase the overall productivity at the point of sale significantly. More on BHT-1500.
