Warehouses: Unique Wi-Fi Challenges

▪ Traditional AIDC terminals and mobile computers.

▪ Voice prompted data collection.

▪ VOIP / PTT

▪ Constant data stream devices on the RF network. i.e. bar code label printers – operating in either “on -demand” or “batch” modes.

nt

▪ Increased competitive pressures

▪ Diverse customer needs

▪ Constant cost pressure

▪ Changing characteristics

▪ High levels of reflection, cancellation and absorption

▪ Large coverage areas

▪ Limited on-site IT expertise

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
