While there are many continually improving hardware platforms, AR/VR and wearable application development poses significant obstacles to further advancement of the technology. In this session, enterprise experts examine the state of available software/content solutions and the challenges of developing industry-ready applications.

‍

- Features/capabilities of enterprise-ready software applications

- Considerations and challenges for building enterprise AR/VR and wearable apps:

• Understanding the UX/UI requirements in an industrial setting
• Field of view (FOV): Screen real estate, display and other hardware limitations
• Battery, memory and computing power limitations
• Lack of standardization
• Security and integration with existing networks and systems

- Content creation: Translating ERMs, PDFs, 2D diagrams, manuals, machine data, etc. into digital, wearable-ready formats

• The CAD advantage and the need for easy 3D content
