The operator is equipped with a portable terminal attached to a belt or holster, as well as a headset through which he listens to commands issued by the system. The same set is also used to respond – to smoothly confirm the implementation of individual operations.

For example, the implementation of a picking task usually follows the following scheme: the operator collects the order for execution – the system indicates the location – the operator confirms the location after reaching the location – the system indicates the quantity/weight to be picked – the operator confirms the quantity/weight and possibly other required data – the system indicates next location.

If you need to enter a longer string of characters, e.g. a shipping label code, batch number or serial number, you can enter scanning for these sequences – but only for specific ones (via the terminal or using an additional wrist-finger scanner).

Voice systems – system components

The entire system therefore consists of four elements. Firstly, the terminal, i.e. from a portable computer that processes system messages into commands and the operator’s voice messages into actions in the system. Secondly, the headset is a specialized combination of microphones and speakers, especially appreciated in demanding warehouse environments. Thirdly, from business software responsible for the implementation and control of tasks (e.g. picking orders). And finally: fourthly, the administrative software, which consists of a console for administering, managing and monitoring devices and users.
