The Vocera Communications Badge is one part of a complete wireless Voice over IP communication system developed by Vocera Communications. The badge is used primarily by medical and healthcare facilities and also in retail, hospitality, government and manufacturing settings. It provides a voice-controlled user interface to the Vocera Communications System.
The Vocera Badge is voice-controlled and has the ability to do role-based calling which allows people to call other users or facilities by name or title or function. Weighing less than 2 ounces (53.9 g), it contains a speaker, microphone, wireless radio and an OLED display that shows caller ID, text messages and alerts. The badge can be worn on a lanyard or with a universal clip to attach to the user's apparel or existing lanyard.
In their October 2011 S-1 filing with the SEC, Vocera reported cumulative unit shipments of over 300,000.

Famous quotes containing the word badge:
“Just across the Green from the post office is the county jail, seldom occupied except by some backwoodsman who has been intemperate; the courthouse is under the same roof. The dog warden usually basks in the sunlight near the harness store or the post office, his golden badge polished bright.”
—Administration for the State of Con, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
