The BGR700 is a robust boarding gate reader for 2D barcoded boarding passes (BCBP’s), designed specifically with a large throat to allow truly intuitive use with all media types including the latest smart watches. The BGR700 reads omnidirectionally and face up, enabling operators to rapidly read barcodes. Speed of transaction is enhanced by near-zero latency, so that barcodes are read instantly on presentation. Designed for future-proof operation, the BGR700 can be upgraded for contactless operation in the field. This allows it to cater for the latest developments in NFC-enabled phones, tablets and smart cards.
