The growing popularity of wearables takes mobility and ease of use to the next level. Whether case picking, sortation or outbound load verification—anywhere along the chain where it’s critical to verify the right item in the right quantity and even the exact serial numbers—Wheeler says it’s important for the ergonomics to be optimal so the technology does not interfere with the work.

Insulet is a producer of insulin pumps – medical devices for the administration of insulin worn by people suffering from type 1 diabetes (approximately 1.25 million patients in the U.S.), which is characterized by low levels, or a total lack of, insulin. Some studies have also shown insulin administration to be efficacious in the treatment of some variants of type 2 diabetes (characterized by insulin resistance).

What need is there for a barcode scanner on a modern smartphone that already has its own 16MP camera? This hardware is designed and optimized specifically for barcode scanning in a way that smartphone cameras are not. The module contains three windows for an illumination light (there’s nothing worse than a dimly lit barcode, right?), a laser to help you target, and the camera itself. It’s a compact module that makes the handheld scanners at retail stores look positively obese. In HP’s demonstrations, the scanner was incredibly fast — you just hold the button on the side of the case to activate the scanner, point it at your barcode, and *beep* you’re scanning.

Featuring the MediaTek Helio P60 chipset (2.0GHz octa-core), 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, the handset aims to serve the public who are looking for a smartphone that will withstand crashes and other accidents, without breaking.

However, having only two ports, one of which will be needed for power, means you will rely on docks or hubs. It’s not such a big deal for most, but a bit of port-juggling is inevitable if you don’t invest in a dock of some sort.

We wish more video game adaptations were as innovative as Mission: Impossible for Game Boy. Based on the Tom Cruise movie series, the actual game itself is nothing to write home about. But it’s in the bonus features that the game gets really cool. Those features basically turned your Game Boy into a classic spy gadget. You can send texts to other players, save addresses, and calculate numbers. But the coolest feature is programming your handheld to your TV as a remote. It works too, scanning through channels and controlling the volume. That theme song is in your head now.
