Comments on the News
"From the very beginning, we built Plex on the premise that manufacturing speed, productivity and quality are all directly related to the accuracy of recording production – and that starts with people and the work they are doing," said Jerry Foster, vice president, Research and Development at Plex Systems. "Making sure Plex was fast and easy for the plant worker has always been part of our DNA, and we've taken that same, role-based approach to every part of the manufacturing enterprise."

"We see manufacturing as the first killer app for Google Glass, providing seamless connectivity to systems, machines, information and transactions for workers on the shop floor, where hands-free is an imperative," Foster continued. "The Plex Manufacturing Cloud is designed to provide universal connectivity to every component in the manufacturing supply chain, from materials to machines, people and information — making it easy to bring innovative new devices like Google Glass onto the shop floor."
