Sharp Imaging and Information Co. of America, a division of Sharp Corp.'s U.S. subsidiary Sharp Electronics Corp., said Dec. 12 that it will work with Amazon Web Services' Alexa for Business to integrate the service in multifunction printers and other Sharp devices for business use.
Alexa for Business allows companies to use Amazon's cloud-based voice assistant Alexa in the workplace to help employees with day-to-day tasks. The move will allow users to interact with Sharp devices through simple verbal commands and will improve overall usability while minimizing the need for product-specific training, Sharp Imaging said.
