Zebra Technologies partners with Aiva Health to bring voice AI assistant to nurses' devices

Zebra Technologies and Aiva Health have partnered to bring voice-enabled clinical support to nurses through Aiva's AI-powered Nurse Assistant on Zebra's healthcare devices, including HC20/HC50 mobile computers and the new WS101-H wearable badge. The collaboration enables hands-free nurse workflows, allowing clinicians to complete routine tasks, retrieve information and communicate using natural voice commands. Nurses have already charted millions of rows with Aiva, reducing documentation time and cutting overtime costs. The assistant supports flowsheet documentation to Epic and Oracle Health, work order submission and access to clinical policies. The partnership addresses healthcare staffing shortages by reducing administrative burden and allowing nurses to focus on patient care. Zebra's devices are built for demanding healthcare environments, offering durability and HIPAA-compliant security whilst supporting fast, low-latency voice interactions.

Zebra's AI-powered 3D sensors help EBI Electric cut lumber waste, save $750K annually

EBI Electric, a wood scanning solutions provider, is using Zebra Technologies' AltiZ 3D sensors to power its AI-enriched lumber scanning solution, Inspector T. The system delivers an eightfold improvement in measurement precision, helping lumber manufacturers reduce errors and waste. The Inspector T solution uses dual AltiZ sensors to capture complete cross-sections of wood planks, identifying knots, cracks and defects with AI-powered accuracy. This enables manufacturers to gain up to 5% more usable wood, resulting in nearly $750,000 in annual cost savings. The sensors operate reliably in dusty mill environments, replacing EBI Electric's 20-year-old linear scanners that frequently missed defects. The technology optimises cuts, reduces waste and improves inventory management for lumber manufacturers.
