ProGlove documentation

More robust in tough environments - Increased durability is achieved through textile-based trigger covers and upgraded pogo pins, making the strap ideal for use in harsh conditions.

Easier handling with secure hold - Enhanced user experience comes from the redesigned clip, which allows effortless insertion and removal of the MAI while keeping it securely in place.

Improved hygiene through personalization - A new customizable label enables users to mark their strap with a name or ID - encouraging ownership and reducing the risk of cross-use.

Easier to clean, built to last - The Hand Strap Gen 2 is washable up to 6 times at 30°C, thanks to a moisture-resistant material - ensuring reliable performance even in humid or wet environments.

Adapted sewing thread and path - The thread used and the sewing path are adapted to achieve greater robustness in demanding applications.

Adapted material and thicker wall thickness - The trigger cover material and geometry have been adapted, including a higher density material with an abrasive additive to provide better abrasion resistance in demanding applications.

Better Velcro hooks and velour - The Velcro is improved so that significantly more closing and opening cycles can be guaranteed with a good hold.

Robustness improvements - Implemented some modifications to improve the overall robustness of the product and ensure consistent durability.

Robust pins - The contact pins to the scanner have been replaced with more robust and forward oriented contacts. Bent or broken pins should no longer occur.

Best comfort - Featherlight and breathable design ensures best comfort on intense full day work shifts.

Easy handling and purchasing - 50% less procurement cost due to less variants.

Faster ROI, lower TCO - Lower TCO and better ROI due to lower product price and handling costs.

Individual Adjustable - Flexible concept with stretchable and comfortable bands with several fixation options for a personalized fir for every user.

Reinforced connection protection - An added material layer shields the electrical connection between clip and trigger, minimizing defects from torsion, abrasion, and rough handling.

Enhanced foam durability - The foam around the thumb-hole and wrist has been upgraded for better abrasion resistance and sustained cushioning, even in rough use-cases.

Robust pins - The contact pins to the scanner have been replaced with more robust and forward oriented contacts. Bent or broken pins should no longer occur.

Patched clip - The fixation of the clip was reinforced by a textile patch in addition to the glue bonding. This should reduce the number of loose or torn clips due to unusually strong forces, such as getting stuck with the device.

Glue bonding cover - The glue marks on the inside of the Index Trigger are now covered with an additional textile layer to improve comfort and avoid direct contact with skin.

Engraved batch number - Every Index Trigger has a batch number engraved in the clip. This enables better service and support processes in the field as well as unit tracking.

Improved connection protection - Improvement of the electrical connection between clip and trigger.

Rugged customized mesh - Better holding force between nylon and mesh (+40%), better abrasion resistance (martindale +50%) while keeping breathability and weight.

Reinforced trigger cap - Improved durability of trigger area by implementing rugged textile layer.

New connection technology - Improved durability based on switching from cable to FlexPCB.

Lighter, flexible and more breathable mesh - Improved comfort and user acceptance due to lighter and more breathable mesh.

Foam protective layer - Better comfort and user acceptance due to add of protective foam around thumb-hole and towards users wrist.

Initial product release.

Pogo pins - New pins that improve durability and longevity of the reel.

Bigger button - Enlarged button area makes scanning easy.

Improved housing - Injection molding material provides better robustness and quality.

Longer thread - A longer thread (120 cm / 74 in) enables users to use full arm length, even when fixed to belt or big persons.

No more reset issue, even if Reel is not brought to default position correctly.

Improve control over scanned barcode. No more “wrong scanning” if user pulls MARK to scan and points with the scanner on another barcode “on the way” to the right one.

Can be used as a “pocket” scanner, no need to pull the thread - theoretical it’s even possible to cut the thread.

Coherent trigger logic of all ProGlove wearables (activate scan engine by pressing button).

Special button features available (e.g. input via double tap).

More durable cord for substantially longer life span of the product.

No lanyard connector needed.
