For example, the American network specializing in the sale of clothing GAP is already using this technology in some of its Old Navy stores.


The invention, called Linea Pro, developed by Infinite Peripherals, is essentially an iPod touch (or iPhone 4), to which a barcode scanner, battery and magnetic strip for a credit card are attached.

Thus, Linea Pro turns the iPod touch and iPhone 4 into a mobile POS-terminal or data collection terminal (TDS). According to the manufacturer, the device increases the efficiency of mobile workers due to its ease of use, as well as the ability to use all the advantages of iPhone smartphones "to the fullest" (GSM, 3G, GPS, Wi-Fi, etc.).

Linea Pro can be used in various industries, including logistics and mobile commerce. The device allows you to reduce costs by abandoning more expensive options running on Windows OS. Currently, there is a huge number of applications for working with Linea Pro.

The device comes with a 1D or 2D barcode scanner, equipped with a three-track magnetic card reader (reading is possible in any direction).
