The Honeywell 8680i is a compact, high-performance wearable mini mobile computer that combines scanner and mobile computing functionality into a single ergonomic device. By replacing separate scanners and mobile computers, it enables hands-free operation and streamlines workflows for picking, packing, and sorting applications, improving overall operational efficiency in demanding warehouse environments.
The standard version of the 8680i offers lightweight, ergonomic Bluetooth wearable scanning with wireless connectivity and battery status display when paired with another device. The advanced model converges all common applications onto a single device, driving streamlined workflows without requiring a separate paired device for picking, packing, and sorting operations.
The 8680i features an omni-directional area imager with motion tolerance up to 584 cm (230 in)/second and supports multiple symbologies including Code 39, DataMatrix, PDF417, and UPC. Typical scanning ranges vary by barcode type—for example, 10 mil Code 39 ranges from 65 mm to 544 mm, while 20 mil Code 39 extends from 49 mm to 812 mm, providing flexibility across various warehouse labeling standards.
The 8680i is built for rugged durability with specifications including 30 drops from 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) to concrete and 2,000 tumbles, ensuring reliability in demanding warehouse conditions. It operates in temperatures from -20°C to 50°C (-4°F to 122°F) and maintains functionality in humidity up to 95% relative humidity (non-condensing), making it suitable for diverse warehouse environments.
The 8680i connects directly to network applications through WiFi and SDK, with offline functionality available through TotalFreedom plugin development. The device features a 3.6V, 3400 mAh battery providing a minimum of 6 hours of operation, with a 3-hour charge time using a battery charger or 3.5 hours with the device charger, ensuring all-day productivity in warehouse operations.
The 8680i offers customizable wearable accessories including triggered ring and glove mount attachment options to suit different worker preferences and job functions.
