Other Zello features (including secure authorization, digital signature, and a dedicated private network) allow OLAR – a secure facility – to communicate directly with an iPod in the campus police department. The Zello app technology enables instant click-talk to a wider range of phones and devices in the facility, at a lower price, on any network throughout campus.
Also - with the iPods, staff can access email from work stations directly by the animals rather than having to leave the facility to communicate.

Apple’s free Find My iPod/iPhone app helps track lost and stolen devices. Furthermore, communications can be encrypted. Features provided by the iPod/iPhone can be used to limit staff access on the device to work email, the Zello app, and certain websites. The iPod/iPhone touch enables high-quality, no-cost communication via reliable devices over the University wireless network instead of paying for cell service to use the Verizon version. So OLAR Director Jori Leszczynski teamed up with colleagues Carolyn Russell and Daniel Munoz to implement a new communications process that utilized iPods and iPhones in conjunction with Zello, a walkie-talkie app.
The 70 staff members were using Verizon push-to-talk cell phones (PTT)/Blackberries and they struggled with a host of technical and other issues, including dropped calls call quality degradation inability to track devices inability to limit personal additions to cell phones high replacement costs low security and, incompatibility of equipment with current University operating systems.
