AREA member Atheer has collaborated with Osterhout Design Group (ODG) to bring their AiR (Augmented Interactive Reality) Suite for Enterprise to ODG’s Smartglasses, a press release published on June 1, 2016, has revealed.
Alberto Torres, CEO of Atheer is quoted as saying, “We are thrilled to be building a deeper collaboration with Osterhout Design Group (ODG) starting with support for the R-7 smartglasses, and look forward to extending our relationship in the future.”
The enterprise application of smartglasses for “deskless professionals” is perfect for streamlining processes for roles such as field engineers, doctors, first responders and industrial technicians. Atheer’s AiR platform is highly collaborative and interactive, meaning efficiencies can be made as workflow interruptions are minimized.
