New! HID & RFID Scanners

HID / RFID Scanner Support

Breeze Booth can process data from HID devices such as:

• Barcode scanners
• QR code scanners
• RFID readers
• Magnetic card readers
• Keyboard-style input devices

When Enable HID Scanner is enabled, any text received from the device is treated exactly like a scanned QR code.

This means HID input can be used with all QR code functionality, including:

• QR actions and commands
• Data strings (S1, S2, S3, etc.)
• Profile selection
• Layout selection
• FX configuration selection
• Session control and automation

HID input provides an alternative to scanning QR codes and can be useful for RFID cards, membership cards, tickets, wristbands, and barcode-based workflows.

Prefix and Suffix

Many HID devices can be configured to send a prefix or suffix before and after the scanned data.

For example, a scanner may send:

{START}ABC123{END}

or

{QR}ABC123

Use the Prefix and Suffix settings to define these values so Breeze can correctly identify the start and end of each scan.

Configuring a prefix and suffix helps prevent accidental keyboard input from being interpreted as scanner data.

Common uses

• Contactless photo booth experiences
• RFID wristbands and event credentials
• Membership and loyalty cards
• Ticket validation
• Staff or VIP identification
• Automated profile and FX selection

Because HID input is processed in the same way as QR codes, existing QR workflows can usually be adapted without any additional configuration.
