using voice applications in the warehouse

The old saying that time is money is true in every industry.

The best way to save money is to find ways to speed up an organization’s process.

With traditional handheld scanning devices, warehouse employees divide their eyesight between the product and the scanner, losing valuable time.

Relying solely on visual input also increases the chance of errors.

Devoting attention to a screen can distract from environmental concerns in a busy warehouse setting, such as moving equipment.

Many businesses are reluctant to make a change of their current, traditional systems, based on handheld devices, due to costs and training time.

RMS Omega is ready to step in with cost-effective voice products that address these concerns. Benefits include:

Increased accuracy. Voice entry of data minimizes errors and the time spent correcting them.

Increased safety. Using eyes-free and hands-free devices enables workers to stay tuned in to the work environments and possible safety hazards.

Integration with existing equipment and systems. Most voice applications can be installed on existing mobile computers if the user has a quality headset. This saves money, stress and training time for new equipment.

Multi-modal data input. Not everything needs to be done by voice.

For example, it might be a good idea to use a voice application for picking, and a wearable scanner for accuracy.

Picking is not the only use for voice functionality. Others include:
