ViewSonic® V38r Helps National Retailer Stay in Control

 

Customer profile:

National retail chain looking for a mobile solution for checking inventory levels and verifying accuracy of shelf stocking.

Challenge:

A large do-it-yourself retailer needed a mobile device that could be deployed at its stores throughout the
country to keep tighter controls on inventory levels and help ensure consistent execution of merchandising
planagrams.


The solution required a bar code scanner for checking inventory and a camera for verifying planagram execution.

chain stores.


The V38r includes integrated 802.11b/g connectivity, bar code scanner, 1.3 megapixel camera, secure digital
(SD) card slot and more.
