Imagine: you're a mechanic about to install and maintain a wide range of devices. From lifesaving AEDs, essential boilers to advanced fiber optic connections. The diversity of tasks requires precision, knowledge and adaptability. Before you can even get started, you usually have to do a number of intensive and expensive training sessions. However, with the rise of revolutionary Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR), a new era is ready. A development that, as far as Guidion is concerned, offers many opportunities.
Apple Vision Pro office demonstration
What exactly can you do with such an Apple Vision Pro? This is what our partner CloudCarrier demonstrated at our office in Amsterdam last week. For a moment, we were immersed in the world of AR and VR. This experience showed us the immense potential of these technologies. Especially when it comes to our training, installation and maintenance processes. One of the most memorable moments was when we had the opportunity to use AR to place an AED virtually on our conference table. We were able to disassemble this essential medical device, piece by piece, accompanied by instructions that floated magically in the air. The accuracy and level of detail of the objects, together with the usability of the technology, exceeded all our expectations.
A new dimension in training
Traditional training can sometimes be dry and theoretical, making it difficult to fully understand complex devices. AR and VR are changing this. For each of these devices, engineers can now take a deep dive into interactive scenarios that mimic the real world. From navigating through a complex boiler, correctly positioning an AED in an emergency situation, to carefully installing fiber optic connections. All in a risk-free virtual environment that encourages and challenges.
Revolutionary field support
In our view, the real strength of AR and VR lies in the field. AR can provide technicians with overlay instructions and real-time data during equipment installation or maintenance. Imagine wearing AR glasses while working on a fiber connection, with step-by-step guidance and network status information right in front of your eyes. Or a VR simulation that guides you through the process of diagnosing and repairing a faulty boiler without actually having to sit at the boiler. How ideal would this be...
From concept to reality
The Apple Vision Pro demo opened our eyes to it, and it's clear that AR and VR have the potential to fundamentally transform how we work. Whether it's saving lives with an AED, ensuring comfort with a boiler, or connecting people to fiber. AR and VR provide us with the tools to perform these tasks with greater confidence and ability than ever before. This is just the beginning of our journey to innovate in technical services, constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible. We look forward to seeing how we can further explore these innovations and implement them in our daily processes. Welcome to a new world of technical expertise powered by AR and VR.
