The Transforming Technologies 7100PGT120TEST15 is a bar code scanner that allows handheld and hands-free modes to scan. The dual functionality saves time and keeps everyone moving. The compact design allows the barcode scanner to fit in the most space-constrained areas. There is an audible and visual confirmation of successful scans which is convenient for noisy environments. A convenient side trigger allows users to adjust the beeper volume on the fly. Omnidirectional scanning is also a component of this barcode scanner which eliminates the need to align the bar code and scanner.
