The challenge

PowerCraft Electronics has built handheld data-acquisition machines since 1997. Its BALAJI brand runs in more than five lakh machines across pygmy banking, bus ticketing, toll and pay-and-park, milk collection, and retail billing.

Those devices live in the field, on low power, doing high-volume transactions. The software has to be light and reliable, or the machine fails the operator at the counter.

How we approached it

Appetals built an embedded Android point-of-sale app for PowerCraft's devices. Designed to be lightweight and intuitive, to consume less power, and to run transactions quickly and reliably on constrained handheld hardware.

Built for the field, not the demo.

Outcomes

PowerCraft's devices ran a point-of-sale app tuned for low power and high-volume transactions in the field. The work sits inside one of India's largest handheld data-acquisition manufacturers, an ISO 9001:2015 company supplying across India and into East and Southeast Asia.
