RedLaser, the barcode scanning mobile app that eBay acquired from Occipital in June 2010, is nearing a significant milestone?nine million total downloads of its iPhone and Android apps. That's up from 2 million downloads at the time of the acquisitions, which is nearly a 350% increase in downloads. RedLaser's barcode scanning technology allows users to comparison shop on the go. Anyone can scan a barcode on an item at a store and then automatically access any eBay listings and local availability (courtesy of Milo) of the product on the marketplace. Sellers can also use the scanning technology to scan and item and list the product in very little time. RedLaser's technology was also integrated into eBay's dedicated iPhone and Android apps.
