OpenRFID Handheld Android Middleware - Native Mobile UHF & Barcode SDK
Universal Android SDK & background middleware service app for industrial handheld RFID terminals (Chainway, Zebra, Honeywell).
Quick Start / Clone Repository
Project Overview
Production-ready open-source Android native SDK and background middleware service for industrial UHF RFID handheld readers and sled terminals (Chainway C72/C71, Zebra TC26/RFD8500, Honeywell). Powered by Impinj E710 & R2000 hardware module support, enabling high-speed bulk tag scanning (200+ tags/sec), power output tuning (5 to 30 dBm), audio Geiger counter asset locator, integrated 2D barcode scanning, and offline SQLite buffering with REST API / MQTT sync.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which handheld RFID readers are supported by OpenRFID Handheld Android Middleware? ↓
It supports Chainway (C72, C71, C66), Zebra (TC26, MC3300R, RFD8500), Honeywell, and CipherLab industrial Android handheld terminals.
Does the SDK support Impinj E710 and R2000 UHF RFID chipsets? ↓
Yes! The SDK automatically detects the underlying hardware module (Impinj E710 or R2000) and configures optimal UART baud rates and command frames.
Can it scan 2D barcodes and UHF RFID tags simultaneously? ↓
Yes. Dual hardware triggers enable simultaneous 2D barcode (Zebra SE4710) scanning and high-speed UHF tag inventory callbacks.
Does RFID Softwares offer paid customization for mobile RFID apps? ↓
Yes. While community support on GitHub is completely free, our engineering team offers paid custom mobile app development, backend integration, and ERP sync.
