<p>The shoe size scanner system is an automated system for use in retail stores, and particularly in shoe stores. The scanner system has a base unit (18) which interfaces with the store's computerized inventory system, and a plurality of remote units which interface with the base unit. The remote units include at least the input device of a bar code scanner, and may be either fixed mount (60) or portable, handheld scanning units (20). According to the shoe size scanner system, each shoe on display in the store has a bar code (16) affixed thereto which encodes an identifier number corresponding to the model of the shoe. Either a sales clerk or a customer may scan the bar code with the remote unit, which communicates with the base unit and returns identification of the shoe model.</p> |
