By digitizing work instructions, projecting those right onto the work area and tracking human actions, anyone is empowered to do the job. The software exists of 3 modules.
1. Digital work instructions:
Paper manuals and protocols are fully digitized, creating one straightforward view with step by step based work instructions for easier use, better understanding and quicker updates.
It ensures standardization and guarantees knowledge transfer so no info gets lost.
2.Vision Tracking
Increase accuracy and reliability of human processes through the use of scientific-grade camera systems. The software ensures the right execution of tasks by verifying the exact position or inspecting products (shape, colour,…). Thanks to the automated inspection capabilities, handlings are locked in case of misalignment or wrong action taking.
3.AR | Ultimate process navigation
Gives the operators the ultimate peace of mind by projecting visual instructions straight onto the workstation and track any handlings. As the process runs hands-free, it’s the most intuitive and immersive control system guaranteeing first-time-right.
