Mobile point-of-sale (POS) device provider Infinite Peripherals (IPC) has introduced the Infinea Tab M, amobile POS device compatible with the iPad mini. It meets retailer needs for a lightweight, portable solution with ample screen space to transform the customer experience and increase traffic to positively impact conversion rates directly on the sales floor, according to Infinite Peripherals President Andrew Graham.

The Infinea Tab M with Lightning connector adds a 1D or 2D barcode scanner and magnetic stripe reader to the iPad mini, so retail associates can conduct customer checkout from anywhere in the store. It offers Bluetooth and RFID reader options.

In addition to POS, the Infinea Tab M can be used for expediting inventory management, asset tracking, ID verification, lead tracking, inspection/work flow, dispatch, time/labor and lab and healthcare. Software development resources and tools are available for the product so customers can program scanner and reader functions into their own software application. The Infinea Tab M is equipped to deliver near-field communication (NFC) in future updates.

IPC also offers accessories including protective cases, trigger gun grips, holsters, wall mounts and stands that can be customized with company colors and logos. The Infinea Tab M comes with a Bluetooth option to connect to a portable receipt printer, such as the IPC mobile printers DPP-250, DPP-350 and DPP-450, for 2, 3 and 4-inch receipts.
