13 January 2009
PITTSBURGH, PA, U.S.A. - Vocollect, Inc., provider of the most widely used voice systems for improving supply chain performance, today announced the spring availability of the Vocollect SRX wireless headset on the second generation WORKABOUT PRO mobile computer from Psion Teklogix, a global provider of wireless mobile computing solutions.
Voice systems have long been proven to dramatically improve productivity and accuracy levels of distribution center and warehouse employees. With the addition of the wireless headset option for the WORKABOUT PRO Speech and thus no cables to connect or clips to attach, workers have more freedom of movement, resulting in increased convenience, comfort and safety.
“The addition of the Vocollect SRX wireless headset option, along with Vocollect Voice integrated within the WORKABOUT PRO Speech, uniquely complements the Psion Teklogix product suite. This new offering further extends Vocollect’s position as offering the broadest choice, the highest performance, and the strongest global reach of any voice supplier in the supply chain distribution market,” said Tom Upshur, vice president of product management and marketing at Vocollect. “This latest offering through Psion Teklogix strengthens Vocollect’s ability to meet the needs of customers for multi-functionality on handheld computers in today’s economically challenging times.”
“Psion Teklogix is excited to be the first Vocollect device manufacturer partner to offer a wireless headset capability with Vocollect Voice on a handheld mobile computer,” said Bart Riviere, director of speech solutions for Psion Teklogix. “We believe this new offering will open up exciting new opportunities for growth in our global marketplace, as customers seek additional ways to leverage their voice investment. We are looking forward to combining this wireless headset with our multi-modal speech offering based on Vocollect Voice. Operators can now easily combine voice with the screen, keyboard and barcode reader.”
The WORKABOUT PRO Speech supports a variety of field-installable expansion modules including scanners, imagers, RFID modules, wireless LAN, GPS, Wireless WAN radios, and more. It functions as both data capture device and cellular phone, allowing mobile workers to call customers, upload route maps, and send data back to office headquarters – all enabled through one mobile device.
Psion Teklogix has achieved the highest level of the Vocollect Voice Partner Program and sells Vocollect Voice applications worldwide.
