Zebra launches new proximity solution designed for post COVID-19 workforce
Summary
This announcement follows many governments around the world issuing guidelines requiring employers to develop and implement appropriate policies such as, but not limited to, social distancing, contact tracing and disinfection. Zebra’s MotionWorks Proximity solution is designed to meet the requirements outlined in the guidelines and the needs of many enterprises looking for a viable option to enhance their reopening strategies. Accurate, automated contact tracing can help companies identify exposed employees for testing, potentially limiting widespread facility closures. Leveraging Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) and WiFi, the software solution is hosted in the cloud, implemented in a short period of time and managed remotely by Zebra, eliminating on-site professional services. Zebra Technologies regional director of Australia and New Zealand Tom Christodoulou says, “We’ve received many enquiries from our customers and partners on the best way to protect our front-line workers during these times.
