Shenzhen Xingtong IOT Technology Co., Ltd.
Barcode Scanner Manufacturer with development & Invention ability
As drone delivery expands, “last‑mile” is now “last‑100‑meters by air.” But after a drone lands, you still need to scan each package—quickly.
A low‑altitude economy PDA is a rugged Android handheld computer with a high‑speed 2D scanner. It reads barcodes on packages as soon as they are unloaded from a drone, updates inventory, and triggers the next sorting step.
No manual typing. No missed scans. No ground delays.
| Location | What You Scan | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Drone receiving station | Package barcodes inside drone cargo bay | Record arrival, check against flight manifest |
| Sorting area | Parcel labels | Route packages to correct destination bins |
| Transfer point | Box codes | Hand off to ground courier or store |
| Customer pickup locker | Pickup QR code | Verify recipient identity before opening locker |
| Challenge | How a Low‑Altitude PDA Solves It |
|---|---|
| Stacked / tilted packages | Wide‑angle scan (70°+) + RFID batch reading – scan multiple items without repositioning |
| High throughput | Batch capture up to 100 codes in one trigger (XT8601B) |
| No network at landing pad | 4G / 5G keeps PDA online; offline storage (130,000 barcodes) as backup |
| Time pressure | Process drone load in <3 minutes so drone can fly back immediately |
