The present invention relates to a technical field of the code scanning device, and in particular, to a handback-type code scanning terminal. The present invention discloses a handback-type code scanning terminal including a terminal body and a fixing member, the fixing member is used to fix the terminal body on a handback, a code scanning device and a gesture sensing device for triggering an on/off code scanning function of the code scanning device are disposed on the terminal body, the gesture sensing device is used to sense a lifting action of a thumb, and the thumb is a thumb of a hand for fixing the terminal body. The present invention does not have to use hands of an operator, and can release both hands of the operator to perform normal manual tasks, a code scanning operation is convenient, a working efficiency is improved, and a user experience is greatly improved.

An ambidextrous hand mount for an electronic device comprises: a proximal fastener configured to engage with a wrist of an operator; a distal fastener configured to engage with a finger of the operator; a body connecting the proximal fastener and the distal fastener and configured to extend along a back of a hand of the operator from the wrist to the finger; wherein the body includes: a main segment configured to support the electronic device; and a flexible segment between the main segment and the proximal fastener, the flexible segment configured to deform to accommodate changes in an angle between the body and the proximal fastener.

A method for proximity detection and ranging with neighboring devices is described here. The method includes identifying, by a processor of a first tag, a second tag from a group of tags within a predefined range of the first tag. The method further comprises initiating, by the processor, transmission of a packet to the second tag in the group of tags identified within the predefined range. The method further comprises, in response to the transmission of the packet, receiving, by the processor, a response packet from the second tag. The method includes in response to receiving the response packet, determining a tag distance between the first tag and second tag. The method includes determining that the tag distance associated with the second tag is less than a predefined distance, generating, by the processor, an alarm or notification to the first tag indicating that the predefined distance is crossed.

An example assembly includes a core module including a processor, a display, a touch user interface (UI) element extending around at least a portion of an outer periphery of the display, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions; a housing configured to removably receive the core module; and a cover selectively positionable in a first position to expose the touch UI element and the display, and in a second position to cover at least a portion of the touch UI element and at least a portion of the display, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the core module to: when the cover is positioned in the first position, operate the display and the touch UI element according to a first functionality UI mode and, when the cover is positioned in the second position, the display and the touch UI element according to a second functionality UI mode.

Embodiments position a barcode reader, or other optical detector, to scan upright barcodes when the user hand is in the neutral position. To do this, embodiments rest the body of the ring scanner device on top of the index finger, with the palm facing inward toward the users body. Embodiments have integrated interactivity, including a touchscreen display and separate buttons that can be used to operate the optical detector and input data into an integrated computing device. The integrated computing device can run software applications on board the ring scanner device. Finally, the integrated computing device can be remotely managed.

A multi-mode ring scanner (MMRS) has a ring unit for wearing on a finger. The MMRS optionally has a wrist unit coupled to the ring unit, such as via a cable. The MMRS optionally communicates wirelessly with a computing device. The ring unit has one or more scanners (such as an optical scanner or an RFID tag reader). The ring unit optionally has two paddle switches for activation by inward pressure from fingers adjacent to the finger. The two switches enable specifying operation of the MMRS in a plurality of modes and/or to communicate a plurality of information codes to the computing device. The computing device is optionally enabled to assign a function to each combination of activation of the two switches. A scanning system including the MMRS optionally provides feedback to a user based on feedback from a host processor.

A wearable device comprising a memory storing a database of product codes and associated product recommendations derived from personalised biological information, a product code reader for reading a product code or data from a product, and a processor for using a read product code or read data to perform a look-up in the database to obtain a product recommendation for the associated product. The wearable device further comprises an indicator for providing an indication of the obtained product recommendation to a wearer of the device.

A wearable device enables a user to switch the device to another state while the user is pointing a finger at an object at a distant position. A wearable camera that a user wears on a finger includes a release switch configured to switch to another state in response to an operation of the user, who is pointing an index finger at an object, with a thumb that is different from the index finger. Such switching of the release with the thumb enables the user to shoot an image of an object at a distant position.

A finger wearable scanner includes a scanner unit detachably coupled to a trigger unit. The scanner unit includes an upper enclosure and a lower enclosure that are detachable from each other, and a scan engine mount assembly and a scan engine mounted thereto that is configured to read and decode an identifier on an object. The scan engine assembly includes mounting locations that engage with fasteners to mount be mounted to both the upper enclosure and the lower enclosure. The trigger assembly is configured to be attached to and detached from the wearable scanner, and to be worn by a body part of a user. The trigger assembly includes a trigger switch to control operational functions of the wearable scanner responsive to an input from the user.

A glove having a palm section, a dorsal section and an electrical device including at least one first component, one second component and a signal line. The first component is provided on the dorsal section and the second component is provided on a section of the glove that is different to the dorsal section. The signal line connects the components to each other electrically and includes a flexible printed circuit board with at least one conductor. The third component is provided on the palm section, on the dorsal section or on a lateral section of the glove, and the second component is provided at the location of the glove that rests on the index finger or the metacarpophalangeal joint of the index finger of a user's hand in the worn condition of the glove. The conductor is designed redundantly. A system including a glove and a functional unit.
