Spanish translation: Deslizamiento Eficaz

English term or phrase: Power slide
Technique used by cashiers with power slide scanners.
Reference (see p.4) https://www.ncr.com/sites/default/files/white_papers/RET_Cas...

"Power slide process begins when no bags are necessary".

Can't find anything about it in Spanish. Considering "deslizamiento inteligente" with English in parentheses, but that's my own wording. Or perhaps just deslizamiento. Or may just leave in English (especially considering the target audience is Spanish speakers in the U.S.).

Ideas?

deslizamiento inteligente


Explanation:
I don't know why they are using "Power slide" when it is actually "Smart slide" or "Smart scanning".
The closest to Power slide should be deslizamiento inteligente.

Técnica Optimizada


Explanation:
Even though "Técnica Optimizada" does not include the term ¨slide¨, after re-reading the document I realize they are describing a technique whereby the scanned product is ¨pushed¨ half-way through the window and for that fraction of a second there are no hands obstructing the rays coming from the scanner.
Since it's the technique that´s being described and taught... the Spanish rendition of Técnica Optimizada may provide a better training result.
