I'm proud to announce that [Social Mobile](https://www.linkedin.com/company/socialmobile/) has been awarded a patent for our handheld digital badge for retail!

Some time ago, we worked on a custom project where we were asked to design and bring to market a sleek handheld barcode scanner. Now, we're excited to see this unique device poised to be the standard option for the retail industry. 

This patent highlights Social Mobile's dedication to innovation and our mission to deliver cutting-edge enterprise solutions. A big thank you to all the teams involved for their hard work in designing and engineering this device.

We’re eager to continue raising the bar for enterprise mobility, so stay tuned for more updates.
