Vizualiiz announced a tablet-based application for data center asset management on Monday.

The Android-based tablet application, called Scout is completely integrated with the vendor’s asset management software product, which helps optimize capturing, tagging, transferring and auditing data center assets.

Vizualiiz offers Scout as an option with the asset-management solution, called LightsOn.

Vizualiiz president Bob Cartwright said Scout enabled a user to carry a tablet through the data center and collect asset information wirelessly from RFID tags or barcodes, feeding that data to the central LightsOn solution.

“This changes a days-long critical activity that often doesn’t get prioritized, into a fast, efficient and streamlined process,” he said.

LightsOn offers 3D visualization of assets for RFID  tracking. Scout is certified to run on Asus and Samsung tablets and works with any tagging and scanning products, Vizualiiz said.
