Cykeo Handheld RFID Readers

Cykeo supplies handheld RFID readers and Bluetooth handheld RFID scanners for projects that require mobile operation rather than fixed installation. These devices are typically used during on-site inspection, inventory checking or system testing.

SDKs, APIs and demo tools are available for customers who need to connect the reader with their own software. Most projects only require basic interface setup. For early-stage configuration or model matching, Cykeo can provide technical guidance based on actual use cases.

Handheld RFID Reader

Handheld RFID readers are mainly used when operators need to move between locations. In real projects, reading distance and stability depend on the RFID tag, RFID antenna orientation, scanning angle and surrounding interference.

During operation, the reader sends RF signals and waits for tag responses. Data is collected by the device and passed to the host system. Bluetooth handheld RFID scanners are often connected to mobile terminals or industrial tablets, where customer software handles data storage and processing. Compared with fixed readers, handheld devices give operators more control over where and when tags are read.

Common Application Areas

Warehouse Inventory Checks
In warehouses, handheld RFID readers are used for daily or periodic stock checks. Staff can scan shelves directly without moving pallets or opening cartons.

Asset Inspection
Factories and hospitals use handheld readers to check tools and equipment during routine inspections. The device is carried to the asset instead of bringing the asset to a fixed reading point.

System Deployment and Testing
System integrators often use handheld RFID readers during commissioning. Tags are verified one by one before cabinets, gates or fixed readers go online.

Enterprise In-House Projects
Some enterprises purchase handheld RFID readers for internal development. These customers may build RFID smart cabinets, access control units or other custom equipment using their own machining and assembly facilities.

Retail Stock Audits
Retail warehouses apply handheld readers for fast inventory audits. Multiple tagged items can be identified in one scan, reducing manual counting work.

Libraries and Archives
Handheld RFID readers are used to verify books and documents during shelving, relocation or annual audits.

Healthcare Operations
Hospitals apply handheld readers to locate movable equipment and confirm asset status during daily work.

Temporary Access Verification
At exhibitions or short-term events, handheld RFID readers are used to check RFID badges without installing permanent infrastructure.
