was founded in 2002 by Dr. Hanjin Lee, an engineer and inventor who holds multiple patents in the scanning technology field and has many more pending. Dr. Lee’s vision was to create a new market in the barcode world with an exciting new product with a quality and versatility that set it apart from the competition. He made his product universally compatible with all technology platforms –Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac. He also saw the sweet spot in the market that opened up with the explosion of smartphone and tablet usage. This foresight enabled him to position KOAMTAC as the very first company to make Bluetooth barcode scanners compatible with Apple products, including the iPhone, iPod and iPad.

KOAMTAC’s mission is simple: to make the best, easy-to-use, competitively-priced Bluetooth barcode scanners to help companies increase productivity, and cut time and costs. The increasing BYOD trend, wherein companies have employees bring their own devices for work, is opening up even more potential for cost savings by pairing KOAMTAC KDCs with employees’ smartphones.w
