A Voice system provides a voice based user interface which allows users to communicate with host systems through their headset and portable terminals. The solution guides users through their daily routines and enables real-time tracking and monitoring of all processes.

What is Voice?

Operator receives spoken computerized voice instructions in his earphone and speaks his commands into a microphone.

The Solution

Operator assignments i.e. pick lists are downloaded into the portable terminal and spoken to the operator through the headset. Progress is reported to host systems after every action.
