KoamTac, Inc. Expands Suite Of Smart Connected Device Sleds

New Samsung Galaxy S4 and Note 8.0 cases will be on display at RetailNOW in Las Vegas August 6 and 7

Princeton, NJ – KoamTac, Inc., has made its name by offering Bluetooth barcode scanners and card readers compatible with what is likely the world’s largest array of smartphones and tablets. Today, the Princeton-based company introduces cases for the Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone and Note 8.0 tablet designed to work with its innovative product line to save companies time and money.

The new offerings join the Apple iPhone5 smartphone case to bring to 14 the number of custom cases that allow users to turn their smartphones and tablets into barcode PDAs when attached to and paired via Bluetooth with the KDC line of programmable Bluetooth barcode data and card readers.

“As quickly as smartphones and tablets evolve, we move just as quickly to design and produce the latest cases so we can help businesses capitalize on the tremendous boom in the popularity and adaptability of smart devices,” said Hanjin Lee, Ph.D., president and CEO of KoamTac.

“Companies understand that their employees, like everyone else, love keeping up with the latest smart devices, just one more factor that makes our smart scanners and accessories the intelligent and practical choice to help boost productivity and profits without having to spend a lot on updating the scanners themselves.” 

The KDC400 sled line includes the KDC415 and KDC425, which are equipped with magnetic stripe readers for retail payments. Just two weeks ago, in a move that broadens KoamTac’s reach into the retail market, KoamTac announced a joint solution partnership with Hybrid Paytech to offer the next generation of intelligent and secure mobile payment solutions.

“We have a growing range of enterprise customers who require PCI compliance,” said Dr. Lee. “Our partnership makes it easy for customers to acquire the security of Hybrid Paytech’s transactional software with the power of our scanning technology that will turn the KDC400 sleds into PCI transaction compliant devices. With strategic partnerships like this, in addition to our ability to produce new cases to move swiftly with the market’s demands, KoamTac will continue to be the smartest choice for smart devices.”

KoamTac will be displaying the new cases in addition to the rest of its product suite in Booth 1039 in Mobile Row at RetailNOW in Las Vegas. The exhibit hall at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino is open on August 6 and 7.
