Honeywell 8690i – Mobile Computer

The 8690i drives streamlined workflows via a single device for many applications, replacing an RFID reader, scanner and mobile computer. The customizable user-facing display communicates workflow instructions, while the two-button interface enables users to navigate menus and confirm selections. The 8690i wearable mini mobile computer connects directly to the network application through Wi-Fi and the SDK, even enabling offline functionality via TotalFreedom™ plugin development. Merging common applications, such as picking, packing and sorting, onto a single device offers improved ergonomics with reduced acquisition and operating costs when compared to wearable scanner plus mobile computer solutions. Rapid RFID product and location identification can enable up to a 66% reduction in steps per transaction vs. handheld barcode scanning applications in high frequency workflows, increasing productivity and operational throughput.Configuration options help tailor the 8690i device the end-use application. It is available (and quickly field-reconfigurable) as a two-finger ring or a back-of-hand glove mount, enabling the device to suit ergonomic and workflow requirements. Available 4 or 12 bay chargers for devices or batteries ensure simplicity to support high volume consolidated settings or widely distributed workflows. With advanced performance to drive highly efficient workflows and durability to survive tough operating environments, the 8690i wearable mini mobile computer can add efficiency and effectiveness to even the most common tasks.
