Voice-Directed Workflow
New Infrastructure Challenges ▪ Lower tolerance for delays and latency
▪ “Screen interaction delays” not acceptable
▪ Frustration will cause a change in voice which can further reduce voice recognition accuracy
Major New Benefits▪ Reduce errors by 85%
▪ Increased Productivity 15-20%
▪ Up to 50% for piece pick
▪ Increased Safety
▪ Heads up awareness
▪ Reduced Training Time 50%
▪ Voice leads workers through a process
▪ Quick user uptake - higher productivity
▪ Reduced auditing man-hours

1. Wi-Fi is undependable, signal strength erratic
2. Performance is inconsistent
3. Signals don’t reach, coverage is spotty
4. Warehouse and DC environment is RF dynamic
5. WLAN systems are costly, cumbersome and complex
