The limits of manual entry
Barcodes get dirty, peeled off, or are missing entirely. Operators retype by hand — time lost, mistakes made.
30 sec × 500 items = 4 hours/day lost
FieldScan / by Logio
No dedicated hardware. On any Android device,
OCR, barcode, and GS1 parsing — fully offline.
Three operational limits
Unreadable barcodes. Expensive hardware. Constant mode switching. Start by facing the three losses on the floor today.
Barcodes get dirty, peeled off, or are missing entirely. Operators retype by hand — time lost, mistakes made.
30 sec × 500 items = 4 hours/day lost
OCR-equipped handheld terminals cost JPY 200–300K per unit. There is no budget to roll them out to every operator.
JPY 200–300K / unit
Barcode → text → barcode. Three seconds per switch, hundreds of times a day.
3 sec × hundreds / day
How FieldScan solves it
One-to-one answers to the three limits your team has been living with.
The limits of manual entry
On-device AI OCR reads printed text automatically — expiry dates, lot numbers, and SKUs at field-ready accuracy, even with dirt or glare.
Zero manual entry.
Hardware cost
Just install it on the Android device you already have. Runs on phones from JPY 30K and up.
At a tenth of the dedicated-hardware cost.
Mode-switching fatigue
Point the camera and FieldScan decides — OCR or barcode — automatically.
Just point. That's it.
Why teams choose FieldScan
01 / GS1 auto-parsing
Scan a single GS1 QR or GS1 DataMatrix and FieldScan auto-parses GTIN, lot, expiry, quantity, and SSCC straight into your WMS fields.
Others stop at "reading".
FieldScan goes all the way to "ready for the system".
