Motorola has announced today a new rugged mobility solution WT4090 Voice-only Wearable (VOW) Terminal and the RCH50 Rugged Cabled Headset, both aimed at improving the productivity of warehouse workers and replace paper-based processes.
The easy-to-use voice-directed solution for enterprise use are suitable for warehouses, factory floors or loading docks, resulting in real-time processing, reduced errors and improved decision making.
“Extending information to the point of activity delivers new efficiencies with secure, cost-effective, reliable voice communications,” said Gerald McNerney, vice president of mobile computing product management, Motorola Enterprise Mobility Solutions.
The WT4090 VOW is a hands-free, voice-directed, task-specific tool that offers comprehensive wireless network connectivity, high-power processing and rich voice capabilities. Features include support for voice-recognition, text-to-speech engines and Voice-over WLAN (VoWLAN).
The RCH50 is Motorola’s rugged, cabled, lightweight headset that enables hands-free, voice-directed mobility solutions in rough environments. It has an ergonomic, comfortable and safe design, plus superior features as noise-cancelling, waterproof microphone to enable real-time voice communications and quick disconnect feature.
Both devices were tests for stress and endurance and can survive in the most demanding situations, including extreme temperatures, drops to concrete and wet and dusty environments.
The WT4090 and RHC50 will be available globally in the first quarter of 2010 through Motorola sales and Motorola channel partners.
From broadband communications infrastructure, enterprise mobility and public safety solutions to high-definition video and mobile devices, Motorola allows people, enterprises and governments to be more connected and more mobile. The company reported global sales of US $30.1 billion in 2008.
