ItemPath is an innovative Cloud-based solution for managing inventory and tracking items, goods and assets. It is designed to be accessible from anywhere via a web browser running on top of any operating system in any Internet-capable device. Sounds simple, right? It is – and it is very simple to use.

Now that smartphone penetration is approaching 70% in the U.S. market, far more of us than not show up at work each day with remarkably capable computing and communication tools already in our pockets.

For many in the healthcare profession, this will be old news. Others, particularly those not yet fully acclimated to government acronyms, may read this note with a growing sense of alarm. On September 24, 2013, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a directive establishing the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID). The purpose…
As much as I love success stories, this one offers a twist I should have seen coming a mile away. Zebra Technologies is an industry leader in Real-Time Locating Systems (RTLS), but what is an industry leader to do when faced with its own RTLS challenges?

Savvy developers know the advantages of delivering new technology in application formats and interfaces with which clients are already familiar, competent and comfortable, and Zebra…
Although Zebra Technologies had long since established its position as a world-class provider of patient-identification tools, it recently strengthened its already formidable patient-ID solutions by entering a strategic alliance with LifeMed ID, Inc. This symbiotic alliance integrates LifeMed ID’s unique Cloud-based patient-authentication systems with Zebra’s secure printers to achieve even greater certainty and efficiency to…
I’ve written previously about deployment of Zebra Technologies real-time locating systems (RTLS) solutions in the critical flight-line operations of the aerospace and defense industries, but aerospace and defense applications go well beyond the flight-line. For example, Zebra’s RTLS solutions were incorporated by Robins Air Force Base in Georgia to provide real-time asset visibility in a…
In October 2013, Zebra Technologies announced Zatar, an open-platform, plug-and-play, cloud-based solution to connect and control your Internet of Things devices, wherever those devices might be. Zatar’s simple, intuitive interface also allows collaboration with all members of your extended team to, as Zebra puts it, “Share data. Take action.” Plus, the Zatar interface is optimized…
