Zebra Parcel Dimensioning integration with Velocity

Use Mobile Parcel API from Zebra within Ivanti Velocity Client emulation (e.g. IBM 5250/3270 and VT100/220). API Reference: Mobile Parcel API - TechDocs (zebra.com)

Introduction

Ivanti Velocity is an Android client that can connect to Telnet hosts (including IBM 5250/3270 and VT100/220) - Velocity (ivanti.com).

The Zebra Parcel Dimensioning solution provides fast and accurate point-and-shoot dimensioning using an integrated time of flight sensor (ToF) with no external snap-on sensors required - Zebra Dimensioning (zebra.com).

This project contains all the resources needed to make the Zebra Parcel Dimensioning solution run within Velocity client emulation.

Preview

Requirements

• One of the following Zebra Devices with integrated ToF sensor:
  • TC53 (Premium only)
  • TC58 (Premium only)
• Velocity Client installed in the Zebra device (available on PlayStore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wavelink.velocity)

1. Install on the TC53/58 the app zebra-dimensioning-middleware-app.apk attached to this project. This app allows velocity to use Zebra Mobile Parcel API
2. Copy the profile velocity-profile-zebra-dimensioning.wldep attached to this project to the following path of your device: /sdcard/Android/data/com.wavelink.velocity/files/
3. Open Velocity app in your device and select "ZebraDimensioning" host profile.
4. Tap the "Capture Volume" button
5. Get parcel dimensioning!
