Zebra Technologies (Booth B6623) is unveiling its two latest wearable computers: the WT6400 and the WT5400.

Created to increase user comfort, while ensuring more efficient, hands-free workflows, the wearable computers offer flexibility in three key ways—as they manage inventory, pick orders and sort items.

Accessible for left- or right-handed workers, the WT6400 provides a large display, an integrated keyboard and an angled camera that can capture an array of images. The images provide verified documentation of completed tasks and damaged items, leading to more organization.

The WT6400 has a wider scope, and it can be used in various environments, including those considered more extreme, such as freezer operations as cold as -22℉/-30°C.

“Supply chain management is only becoming more and more complicated, especially since consumers’ expectations are steadily rising on a nearly daily basis,” said Andre Luecht, global strategy lead, Transportation, Logistics and Warehousing, at Zebra Technologies. “By using these wearable computers, users will be more prepared to overcome these challenges though.”
