Zebra Technologies is set to present a range of advanced hardware and software innovations at MODEX 2026, taking place from April 13 to 16 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta. At Booth #B11902, the company will demonstrate how digital tools and intelligent automation can help organizations strengthen supply chain visibility and improve frontline efficiency.
The showcase comes at a time when businesses are prioritizing greater transparency across operations. Industry research conducted by Zebra in collaboration with Oxford Economics indicates that nearly one-third of manufacturers and over a third of transportation and logistics leaders view enhanced supply chain visibility as a key objective in the coming years. In response, Zebra continues to expand its Connected Factory framework, which focuses on delivering actionable insights, improving quality control, and supporting workforce productivity.
A key highlight of the exhibit is the introduction of the WS501-R wearable computer. This compact, hands-free device combines multiple capabilities, including barcode scanning, RFID tracking, and voice-enabled workflows, into a single rugged unit designed for demanding environments. By enabling real-time data capture at the item level, the device supports faster and more accurate decision-making across operations.
Zebra will also feature its TC501 and TC701 mobile computers, designed to bring artificial intelligence capabilities directly to frontline teams. Equipped with on-device analytics, these devices can process data instantly for applications such as proof of delivery, text recognition, and live tracking. This allows organizations to respond quickly to operational needs while improving overall efficiency.
Visitors to the booth will experience demonstrations covering key supply chain processes, including receiving, picking, shipping, and last-mile delivery. One of the featured innovations is a machine vision-based Jam Detection system that identifies potential conveyor disruptions before they escalate, helping reduce downtime and associated costs.
The booth will also include solutions from Elo, now part of Zebra Technologies, along with integrated applications developed in collaboration with independent software vendors. Additionally, Jabil will present its use of Zebra’s technologies to optimize complex supply chain operations.
Zebra executives will host educational sessions during the event, focusing on the role of artificial intelligence and automation in modern warehouse management. These sessions aim to provide industry leaders with practical insights into improving operational performance. Zebra Technologies continues to support organizations worldwide with solutions that connect frontline operations, enhance visibility, and enable smarter decision-making across supply chains.
