ScanGenie: Effortless Scanning and Cloud Empowerment for the Toughest Barcode Challenges!

ScanGenie, the brainchild of Rohit, an embedded engineer from London, has arrived to revolutionize barcode scanning. With its cutting-edge features and innovative design, ScanGenie aims to solve the problems faced by many of us who rely on outdated barcode readers in our daily lives.

Packed with powerful capabilities, ScanGenie is equipped with a state-of-the-art Barcode/QR code scanner that effortlessly reads 1D, 2D, and even 3D barcodes, supporting up to 20 different barcode symbologies. But it doesn’t stop there. At its core lies the Espressif ESP32-S3 WROOM 1 module, boasting the mighty Xtensa® LX7 CPU clocked at up to 240 MHz. This ensures robust processing capabilities, delivering quick and accurate results for all your scanning needs.

What sets ScanGenie apart is its integration of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity through the onboard ESP module. By connecting your barcode reader to the internet wirelessly, you can instantly share data and access it from anywhere in the world. It’s like having a Genie for Scanning, granting you unparalleled convenience and accessibility.

But that’s not all. ScanGenie also offers HID (Human Interface Device) mode, a widely-used default mode in barcode scanners known for its simplicity. No additional software or coding is required. Simply connect the scanner to your device, focus on an input field, and the scanned code will seamlessly flow into it, just like typing. This mode also extends its compatibility to RFID and magnetic stripe readers, supporting ASCII and special characters. Should you desire to trigger specific actions with each scan, some additional code may be needed, which can be found in the documentation.

While HID mode may have its limitations, such as sending each scanned character as two separate packets and requiring input field focus, it remains an easy-to-use solution for most applications, especially considering the standard barcode length and its simplicity.

Don’t miss out on the ScanGenie Super Early Bird offer! For a limited time, you can secure your ScanGenie for just £45 on Kickstarter. Once the campaign ends, the price will increase to £55.
