SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Modernizing a Nationwide Indoor/Outdoor Package Sorting
  System
DESCRIPTION:Designer, IP and Embedded Systems Track Poster Networking Rece
 ption\n\nCANCELLED: Modernizing a Nationwide Indoor/Outdoor Package Sortin
 g System\n\nHackathorn\n\nA global logistics giant needed help when the&#8
 239;mission&#8239;critical technology it relied on&#8239;for package track
 ing&#8239;was&#8239;declared&#8239;“end-of-life” by&#8239;the 
 vendor that created it&#8239;with no replacement offering. This hardware a
 nd software system was&#8239;at&#8239;the core of the client’s busin
 ess, sorting&#8239;and tracking&#8239;packages as they&#8239;were routed i
 n&#8239;each of its U.S. sorting hubs. From warehouses to airports, each h
 ub presents a unique, extreme environment for this&#8239;mission critical&
 #8239;equipment.&#8239;&#8239; \n\nThe design team was quickly able to eng
 ineer and manufacture a new ruggedized tablet computer with touchscreen th
 at&#8239;mounted to&#8239;the existing infrastructure and&#8239;linked&#82
 39;to the rest of the&#8239;package tracking&#8239;system with&#8239;stabl
 e, long&#8239;range&#8239;Bluetooth&#8239;connection.&#8239; \n\nThe harsh
  environmental conditions and complex functionality required using the tea
 m’s experience&#8239;of designing mission critical&#8239;edge comput
 ing devices&#8239;for military and oil and gas markets. This included addr
 essing:&#8239; \n-A high vibration and high shock environment&#8239; \n-Hi
 gh temperature and high humidity environments&#8239; \n-Significant range 
 for wireless communication&#8239; \n-Ability to support&#8239;existing sof
 tware and upcoming&#8239;leading-edge software&#8239;&#8239;\n&#8239;&#823
 9; \nThe client was so pleased with the&#8239;solution provided&#8239;&#82
 11; including the fast design and rapid in-house prototyping and manufactu
 ring&#8239;-&#8239;that they intend to deploy this solution across hubs gl
 obally.&#8239;\n\nVirtual Program: Presented In-Person
