After scanning a barcode, the associate receives optical, acoustic and haptic feedback. Visual communication with the warehouse management system (i.e. quantities, next pick location) can be conducted via a tablet.

PlusGlove significantly improves process efficiency. While traditional ring scanners are not ergonomic and difficult to use, PlusGlove enables associates to work faster, safer and easier in the picking process. The associates can continuously deploy both hands during operations without having to search or reach out to a scanner in between. In turn, this results in process savings of up to 40% in comparison to usual scanners.

“The feedback from the warehouse staff during the trial period was consistently positive. For this reason, I am convinced that the use of the PlusGlove will lead to increased productivity at our warehouse in location . An extension to further warehouse locations is planned and will be realized soon”.

The development of PlusGlove follows the idea that humans will continue to be an important center of industry in the future. That’s why we’ve developed a lightweight and intuitive smart glove that can be used without any integration effort. PlusGlove supports the employee in his daily work and connects him with Industry 4.0.
