“Cattura makes it possible to acquire barcodes and OCR information from packaging in a single operation, reducing the number of steps required compared to traditional laser scanners.”
Developed by Suntech
15+ years of enterprise mobile computing on Zebra, Datalogic and Honeywell terminals.
Built on Zebra AI DataCapture
Official certified SDK: on-device barcode and OCR decoding, no cloud.
Italian company
Technical support in Italian, Italian SDI invoicing, license agreements in Italian.
Why Cattura
Engineered to ship a project, not just a demo.
Cattura is not just a scanning app: it's a data-capture layer designed to enter production without dedicated development cycles.
Zero custom development
Universal keyboard wedge and standard Intent broadcasts. Integrates with any ERP, WMS, or Android app in production — no additional code required.
Data quality from day one
On-device AI decodes damaged barcodes and text printed in industrial conditions. Configurable filters (regex, length, whitelist) eliminate spurious reads before they reach downstream systems.
Deploy measured in hours, not weeks
Signed APK and StageNow profile distributable via MDM. A 200-device Zebra fleet configured within a single work shift.
Operational autonomy
All decoding runs on the terminal's Hexagon DSP. No image leaves the device. Works offline, compliant with industrial data residency policies.
Features
A full scanner, running in the background.
Cattura replaces custom DataWedge profiles, third-party SDKs and app-side integrations. A single app that turns any Zebra terminal into a universal data capture device.
Universal Keyboard Wedge
The scanned value is injected as key events into the active field, followed by Enter. Works with any app: ERP, browser, terminal server, Citrix.
Native Intent broadcasts
For native Android apps: results are also posted as Intent broadcasts with every field structured (value, symbology, confidence, timestamp). Clean integration via BroadcastReceiver, no keyboard dependency.
On-device AI
Decoding runs on the Hexagon DSP (Qualcomm Snapdragon). No image leaves the terminal. Sub-100ms latency even on damaged, tilted or partially occluded barcodes.
Text OCR
Cattura also reads printed text: batch numbers, serials, expiry dates. Filters for length, regex, allowed characters.
Accumulate mode
Automatic, manual or accumulate: scan multiple codes in one pass and submit them all at once. Perfect for multi-line picking.
Boot auto-start
The scanner service restarts automatically when the terminal reboots. Operators don't have to re-open anything manually.
Full symbology coverage
Code128, EAN/UPC, QR Code, Data Matrix, PDF417, Aztec, GS1, postal codes. Inverse 1D mode, marginless decoding and per-symbology quality thresholds.
MDM-ready provisioning
Deploy via standard MDM (SOTI, VMware Workspace ONE, Ivanti Avalanche). Automatic provisioning via EMDK or StageNow profile. A 500-device fleet configured in a few hours.
Built-in demo license
7-day demo auto-activated on first launch, no device registration. Migration to commercial license via server-side activation: no reinstall, no operational interruption.
How it works
From APK to first scan in 5 minutes.
No backend to configure, no integration with your line-of-business app. Cattura works with any input field.
1
Install the APK
Via MDM, adb install, or file manager. The APK is signed with Suntech's certificate for EMDK authorization.
$ adb install -r Cattura.apk
2
Apply the StageNow profile
The .bin file authorizes keyboard simulation system-wide. Persistent across reboots, MDM-ready.
StageNow → Stage from File

Compatibility
Built for the Zebra enterprise range with NPU.
Cattura requires a Zebra terminal with a Hexagon DSP to accelerate the AI DataCapture SDK engine. Supports the whole enterprise line on QCM6490, QCM5430 and QCM6690 chipsets. The app auto-detects incompatibility and warns the user.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to modify my ERP/WMS app to use Cattura?
No. Cattura emulates a physical keyboard: the scanned value is injected as key events into the active input field, followed by Enter. It works with any application — web, native Android, remote terminal — with no changes at all.
Does it work on non-Zebra devices?
No. Cattura requires the Zebra AI DataCapture SDK with Hexagon DSP, available on: TC501, TC701, TC53, TC58, TC73, TC78, ET60, ET65, ET401, EM45. Legacy Zebra devices without DSP (TC22, TC21, MC93), the "e" models with QCM4490 chipset (TC53e, TC58e, MC9400, MC9450) and consumer smartphones are not supported.
Does scanned data leave the device?
No. The entire decoding and OCR pipeline runs on-device, on the terminal's Hexagon DSP. The only network traffic is toward the Suntech license server for initial validation and demo renewal — no scanned content is transmitted.
How do I deploy to a fleet of 200+ terminals?
Through MDM. The signed APK and the StageNow profile are bundled in the enrollment profile of your MDM (SOTI MobiControl, VMware Workspace ONE, SureMDM, Ivanti Avalanche and similar). Alternatively, auto-provisioning via EMDK. The admin setup guide ships with the demo kit.
Which barcode symbologies are supported?
All major 1D symbologies (Code128, Code39, EAN-13/8, UPC-A/E, Interleaved 2 of 5, GS1-128) and 2D (QR Code, Data Matrix, PDF417, Aztec, MaxiCode). Postal codes included (USPS, Canada Post, Japan Post), plus advanced decoding modes for inverse 1D, marginless codes and poor-quality prints.
How is it different from Zebra OCR Wedge / DataWedge?
Cattura does free-text OCR (lots, serials, expiry dates) and unifies barcode + OCR in a single gesture; Zebra OCR Wedge uses predefined templates (VIN, plates, containers, documents) with a separate barcode flow. Different tools for different needs — they often coexist on the same fleet.
