Chalmers Research Institute will Study Augmented Reality in Smart Industry Lab
Chalmers Research Institute has announced the opening of its Smart Industry lab on the Chalmers Campus Lindholmen, Sweden. Augmented Reality is one of the three pillars of Industry 4.0 technologies on which the institute’s scientists and engineers will be focusing (the others being high speed wireless communication systems and open robotic environments).
XMReality, a Swedish Augmented Reality solution provider, is one of the partners whose technologies will be featured. In the new lab and using the technologies of pioneering companies, students and engineers are trained. The lab also provides opportunities for industry to test new technologies in practical testbeds. Ultimately, the graduates and interns who work in the lab will have greater understanding of how, when and where to use the new digital tools in improving workplace performance.
