Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS)—more commonly known as drones—are being used effectively for a variety of reasons and in multiple industries. Unmanned-aircraft systems are excellent and safe inspectors, but the future is in analyzing the data they collect.
Read MoreAugmented Reality Solutions for Manufacturing Efficiency
/
Connecting humans and machines through augmented reality is changing the face of industrial manufacturing and providing efficiency solutions. When digital content is overlaid on a piece of machinery, the equipment comes to life. Detailed instructions pop into focus to guide the operator, helping him/her to identify and fix any problems. Animated 3D renderings, in exact proportion, explode into view and visually show the operator how to repair and maintain the machinery through step-by-step visual aides. Like something from “The Terminator” or “Minority Report” movies, the operator can instantly see the digital content directly in front of him. This is one example of how augmented reality (AR) is revolutionizing the efficiency of industrial operations.
