Hands-Free Orderpicking with LXE HX2 
LXE introduces the HX2 rugged Wearable Computer, a new addition to its line of Hands-Free Picking Computers
The HX2 boosts performance in warehouse picking & small parcel move applications
The compact HX2 rugged wearable computer has an extraordinarily bright and crisp colour display for easy viewing in any lighting conditions and from any angle – no longer is there a need for your wearable computer to be “front and centre” to be read. And the large, backlit keys have been carefully designed for use in high-speed picking environments. The keys are fully mappable, so customers can customise them for specific applications.
Beyond all that, this computer is tough. It has to be to survive the tough work environments in which it will be used. The HX2 wearable computer’s magnesium alloy front and impact-resistant screen are designed to keep the unit in service and out of the repair shop. The
HX2 rugged wearable computer’s ring scanners (laser and imager) are built as tough as the main computer.
Both the HX2 rugged wearable computer and its ring scanner accessories were designed with safety in mind. The entire HX2 rugged wearable computer system features breakaway connections at multiple points and a low-profile, smooth design to resist snagging on common warehouse fixtures and equipment.
“With the HX2 rugged wearable computer along with the HX1 dedicated voice computer and the MX7 multimodal scanning/voice handheld computer, LXE now has one of the industry’s most complete suite of data collection solutions for picking,” says Jim Childress, LXE’s president and general manager. “With LXE, customers can now choose the perfect picking technology for their specific applications.”
The HX2 rugged wearable computer is driven by the latest Windows® CE 5.0 operating system and an Intel® Xscale® processor. It features an 802.11b/g radio with Bluetooth, so you’re prepared for the real-time business opportunities of today and tomorrow.
“We’ve integrated the feedback from dozens of current wearable customers into the design of the HX2 rugged wearable computer,” says Steve Binder, Managing Director, UK Operations, LXE UK Ltd. “We’ve developed a unit that not only significantly improves upon these existing wearable terminals, but does so in a manner that won’t disrupt operators who are comfortable with the operation of their existing terminals.”
The HX2 rugged wearable computer also includes LXE’s ToughTalkTM technology. ToughTalk™ technology is LXE’s specialised combination of LXE’s trademark ruggedised system design, advanced audio circuitry and noise canceling techniques, which enable the HX2 rugged wearable computer to support today’s industrial-grade voice recognition applications. With the HX2 rugged wearable computer, customers can run both their voice logistics applications and their traditional barcode scanning applications on the same unit.
