We have that at a grocery store in my area, though you use an app on your phone to scan with the camera and the "random testing" seems to happen pretty much every time. If I had one of their scanners instead of their laggy app, I'd be much happier. (Though I guess modern handscanners are Android devices with a laser, so maybe not that much better...)
