I have seen some old HP Calculators with a barcode scanner wand and thought I would give it a go on the HP Prime.
I'm not actually sure what the wand entry was for exactly on the 41c. Was it to load a program from a book? I'm pretty sure it wasn't to enter numbers like in the video anyway, this is just a proof of concept. Maybe it will be possible to enter a program from a barcode on the HP Prime using a similar method to this, although i'm not sure how I would go about it yet.
