Mobile Computers and Data Capture Devices for Enterprises
Mobile Data Capture for Warehouse, Retail, Field Service and POS
Mobile computers are the foundation for fast, reliable and transparent data capture in operational work environments. Whether in warehouses, production, transport, retail or technical field service: with professional data capture devices, handhelds, wearables and tablets, your employees capture data directly where it is generated.
ICS supports you in selecting, integrating and operating suitable mobile computing solutions. From hardware consulting and AIDC technologies to software, rollout and managed services, you receive everything from a single source.
Mobile Data Capture for Efficient Workflows
Professional mobile computers enable end-to-end digital data capture without media disruptions. Barcodes, RFID tags, storage locations, serial numbers, shipments or service orders are processed directly on mobile devices and transferred to existing IT systems.
This helps companies reduce manual input, avoid errors and create greater transparency along the supply chain.
Your Key Benefits
- Fast and reliable mobile data capture
- Fewer manual entries and transmission errors
- Rugged hardware for demanding application areas
- Seamless IT integration
- Scalable solutions for warehouse, logistics, industry and service
- Consulting, rollout and support from ICS
Mobile Computers for Every Application Area
Warehouse & Intralogistics: Mobile computers support employees in goods receipt, picking, inventory, stock transfers, packaging and shipping. Data is captured directly in the warehouse and is immediately available in the system.
Transport & Logistics: In transport, mobile devices support shipment tracking, proof of delivery, route information and real-time status updates. Drivers and dispatchers work from a shared data basis.
Production & Industry: In production, rugged handhelds enable the capture of material movements, batches, serial numbers, inspections and production steps.
Retail & Stores: In retail, mobile computers support stock checks, price checks, shelf management, goods receipt, inventory and omnichannel processes.
Field Service & Technical Service: Service technicians can capture and process orders, spare parts, inspection reports, photos and digital signatures directly on mobile devices.
Device Classes for Mobile Computers
Data Capture Devices and Handheld Terminals
Rugged data capture devices, handhelds, PDAs and rugged smartphones enable mobile data capture directly at the point of use and combine barcode capture, data processing and mobile communication in one device.
Rugged Tablets and Touch Computers
Mobile devices with large displays support applications with extensive user interfaces, such as checklists and service reports.
Wearables for Hands-Free Working
Wearable computers, voice solutions and AR smart glasses support tasks where employees need to keep their hands free. They are particularly suitable for picking, sorting, assembly, service and maintenance.
RFID Devices and
RFID Handhelds
Mobile RFID readers and RFID-enabled devices enable contactless identification of goods, containers and load carriers. This allows inventories, assets and material flows to be captured quickly and reliably.
Vehicle-Mounted and Forklift Terminals
Rugged terminals for forklifts, industrial trucks and vehicles provide data directly in the vehicle. They support applications in warehouses, yard logistics, production and transport.
AIDC Technologies for Mobile Data Capture
Depending on the application, ICS combines mobile computers and data capture devices with suitable AIDC, voice and communication technologies. This creates mobile solutions that reliably capture and transmit data and make it directly usable within the workflow.
Barcode Scanning
RFID & NFC
Camera Capture & Sensor Technology
Mobile Printing
Wi-Fi, Cellular & 5G
Integration, Rollout and Operation from a Single Source
Mobile computers only deliver their full value when devices, applications, data transmission and IT systems work together seamlessly. ICS supports you with hardware selection, integration, rollout, device management and operation – ensuring that data captured on mobile devices can be reliably processed in ERP, WMS, TMS, POS or field service systems.
As a manufacturer-independent solution partner, ICS provides technology-neutral and application-focused consulting. Thanks to established partnerships, you benefit from a broad product portfolio – from individual data capture devices to company-wide rollouts.
On request, ICS also supports mobile device management (MDM) / enterprise mobility management (EMM), for example with the SOTI ONE Platform ↗︎. In addition, ICS plans and implements powerful connectivity concepts with Wi-Fi, WWAN or private 5G – for robust, secure and low-latency connections in warehouse, intralogistics, logistics and field service.
