Rapid barcode scanning within a repeat

I'd like to create a Survey123 form where our field staff can quickly scan a barcoded tissue sample before packing into a box which is then shipped to a diagnostics laboratory. These shipments often consist of hundreds of samples so I need a rapid scan solution where you don't have to click or push between scans.  So far I've not been able to figure out a solution that doesn't involve clicking in between scans. I need something similar to self checkout at a grocery store. Is this possible in Survey123?

I think at UC they said barcode scans are coming to QuickCapture?

I wonder if carriage returns are enabled on the barcode scanner will that autoadvance to the next repeat within Survey123? I just learned that most scanners have a "carriage return" setting.
