Remote Assistance

This use case pertains to having remote subject matter experts assisting on-site technicians or users (together called “on-site users”) in performance of any task or process which would otherwise not be completed (on time or according to guidelines). There are aspects of this use case category that overlap with guidance, assembly and navigation use cases. It may also include...

Simulation

This use case pertains to using Augmented Reality to simulate (within and in interaction with the real world) the insertion or repositioning of things using 3D models. The 3D models can be of weather patterns, energy flows, industrial equipment, infrastructure (such as HVAC) or moving objects in a zone or confined space...
