Why Augmented Reality

As machinery such as medical instruments, power generation equipment and transportation become more and more technologically advanced, AR becomes more valuable as a tool to service & repair this complex equipment. Using AR technology is more cost effective since it allows even a person with rudimentary knowledge of service & repair to follow the step-by-step process that’s laid out in the software, which guides the technician through the procedure and saves as much as 34% in time by placing the information right in front of the their eyes. It cuts down on travel time since specialists don’t have to leave their offices, and can now conduct servicing operations right from their desks, supervising numerous junior or client-side technicians via “See-What-I-See” video streaming capability. The most functional application of AR is one that works using smart glasses technology, since service professionals have access to all the information they need while having both hands free to do the repair work.
