Pick by Voice equips warehouse pickers with a wearable voice terminal and headset that calls out instructions—location, item, quantity—and records confirmations through spoken responses. Hands remain free throughout, so workers can focus entirely on retrieving goods without setting down a scanner or paper list. Error rates drop noticeably compared with paper-based picking, because verbal confirmation of each pick acts as an immediate check. The technology is most common in large, fast-moving distribution centres with high order volumes, and it integrates readily with warehouse management systems and other picking methods such as pick-by-light.
