Carsten Funke of Picavi Pick-by-Vision Talks Increased Productivity and Maintaining Worker Safety during COVID-19 Pandemic

Carsten Funke, the CEO for Picavi U.S.A., recently spoke with manufacturing journalist,  Thomas R. Cutler about improved productivity and efficiencies while maintaining employee safety as a COVID-19 return to work strategy. Read the interview in The Evolving Enterprise magazine here

According to Funke, “The main drivers for IoT deployment are improved efficiency, cost savings, product quality, and customer satisfaction. IoT is also opening the door to new business models and revenue streams, as companies look to evolve traditional product strategies toward a more services-led approach. This shift has quickly become even more important as companies across all industries are learning to navigate the impact of COVID-19.”

Pick-by-Vision allows companies to achieve full scalability, meaning companies can derive maximum value. Using smart glasses and a remote installation removes the complexities around integration, making adoption and expansion safe and immediately available.

“The benefit of our system is that each worker has their own set, at least for the shift, and no one touches it, compared to the Lights – that get a lot of different hands. The glasses are the easiest device to disinfect since you can use a 0.5% detergent-water solution, such as natural detergent or mild dishwashing soap, or 70-80% isopropyl alcohol to a clean; using a soft damp cloth and wiping down all surfaces is most effective,” added Funke.

The Evolving Enterprise is the new digital magazine bringing real-world applications for headline technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.
