Running both voice and scanning applications

The MX8 wireless handheld data collection computer for scan-intensive activities includes a 2D imager option for use in manufacturing. Measuring 7.6 inches long and weighing less than 13 ounces, the device sports a touchscreen and backlit keys to improve visibility in lessthan- optimum lighting conditions. Scanning options include standard-range laser scanners and 1D and 2D imagers. Its battery runs for more than 10 hours on a single charge. The multimodal unit is voice-ready with advanced audio circuitry and noise-canceling techniques to support industrial-grade voice recognition applications. Both voice logistics applications and bar code scanning applications can run simultaneously.
