Using all publicly available information, perform a comprehensive research survey of the specific applications our competitors (and their partners) claim to have solved using their smart camera-based vision systems and ID readers

For each application, qualitatively assess the extent of the competitor's focus and strength on that application. For example, do they provide an application-specific user interface? Do they offer an application-specific product literature and videos? Do they promote their solution through specific partners?
Time permitting, work with the Applications Engineering team to assess how well Zebra's current smart camera product offerings solve 3 to 5 of the most common applications frequently discussed by our competitors, identifying feature/functionality gaps
Prepare a summary of findings on all the above and present to MV/FIS group leaders and senior management
