Motorola invests in wireless badges supplier

Motorola Inc said on Wednesday that its venture arm invested in privately held Vocera Communications, a supplier of wireless badges that allow retail and healthcare workers to communicate with each other.

Motorola, the world's second biggest mobile phone maker, did not disclose the terms of the investment.

Vocera's system connects a lightweight wearable voice controlled badge that connects to Wi-Fi, short-range wireless networks used within buildings and in public places.
